   I thought about adding it, but it can't help that much!
   sysinst needs to write into /tmp (disktab for disklabel) so needa a
   read-write root filesystem.
   
   Anyone who knows anything about 'miniroot' installs care to comment?


i don't see why you couldn't modify the miniroot.. you may hvae
to mount -u -o rw / tho..
