That is exactly what I was referring to above. And AFAIK DragonflyBSD
does it in a similar way. They simply copy the live CD onto the HDD.
Minus: Installing a specification file this way would
be slower because you then have to read a lot of small
files off of CD.
True, but couldn't we optimize the ISO layout so it will be a near
sequential read of the CD?
Hmmm... This might work. The prototype 'ntree' support
I posted should be sufficient for people to experiment
with these ideas.
Cheers,
