Flashdist is quick and easy. One important thing to remember, however, is stated right on their homepage: "It is designed to install a minimal version of OpenBSD with features for networking". The last time I used flashdist, the bits that were stripped out included utilities for user management, cron, and some other stuff I would have very much liked to have available, but which I hadn't read the instructions thoroughly enough to have configured into the system originally. It's kinda a pain to install some of those pieces after the initial installation is done and the router is up and running, so make sure to configure what you want to have in yout system as you're running the flashdist scripts. -Josh
