OK, this may be a dumb question :-) but I'll ask it anyway. Wouldn't it be
possible to create a bootable CD? With the cost of CD burners dropping
faster than the stock market and the media costing approximately nothing,
it'd be economic for a number of us to create a bootable CD to use just
once. In addition, (provided the demand wasn't too great) it'd be possible
to create CDs for other NetBSD wannabies...
