You're right, I was thinking of totally-diskless (which I happen to be
working on, as we speak). 

By the way, someone pass the funny looking hat, I used Sun tar to extract 
the bindist on my SunOS box, and it dropped all the character special
devices - I ended up with all sorts of 0-byte reg files all over /dev.
Thing is, I didn't notice for quite a while...  :-)  Was quite interesting,
as I could _see_ that it was getting into init, but it was just hanging..
