I'll certainly agree it is a somewhat obscure request.  However, if such
tools are around they can really pay off.  Tasks such as:

	o	building root file systems from the source tree
	o	installing kernels when cross compiling
	o	(for x86) creating boot disks  (do you
		really do everything on a disk then
		DD it into a file?)

become trivial.  Oh well, worth a try ...

	more latter, Andrew :-)
