Sorry. It's got to go somewhere offline. If not in the crunched /stand I'd guess it could live on the mfsroot floppy as an archive. I agree that DHCP is very important to have *somewhere* easy to use for both pre- and post- install purposes. We've produced a deviant PicoBSD that uses a different scheme for and uses shared libraries for greater flexibility. Of course, the price you pay is the static memory footprint required. As Jordan has mentioned, what we really need is a new dynamically sizable memory filesystem. I see that Eivind is doing something with getting NULLFS fixed. This is probably a very good step toward a more flexible setup environment.
