First -- it works! Second (and the reason of this email): i tried to find an easy way to install PicoBSD on the flash, but could not find one. My idea was to use /stand/sysinstall the same way i do with HDs -- install booteasy on the flash, then define a couple of partitions, one of which is the size of the floppy image, and then cat the image to the partition. Unfortunately, after this booteasy shows the F1 prompt but seems unable to boot. I am unsure if this is a result of the geometry of the flash (490/2/32 -- maybe booteasy needs the full 63-sectors which are on each track on all my other disks ?) or something else -- anyways, i ended up just catting the floppy image at the beginning of the flash, then boot from a floppy, use fdisk to put the right size in the first partition. This is, i think, similar to the "dangerously dedicated mode". Any ideas on better ways to produce an image that i can copy to the flash ? cheers luigi -----------------------------------+------------------------------------- Luigi RIZZO, luigi@iet.unipi.it .

Finally I put the flash in a FreeBSD box with an IDE disk, and spammed the first few blocks (10, IIRC) off the disk on to the flash using dd. Then I fixed up the fdisk and disklabel on the flash, newfs'd it and copied on (what would have been) the contents of the PicoBSD floppy (the files, not the disk image).
