Jumping's not for me. I'm more into finding a short cut to get
round a barrier rather than jumping over it. Or drilling a hole
and tunnelling through.

There are ways I can see to shave maybe another 10% of the total
install time. (By that I means that there are things I could
fix myself - I don't currently have the technical ability to
fix the smf import problem, which would have more of an impact.)

The one other thing that would be interesting would be to see
what difference installing to zfs makes.

I am both encouraged and discouraged by what I've found so
far. Encouraged because the installation (except for the DVD
problem) isn't as bad as is made out - even by myself - and
that there are things that can be done to make a difference.
Discouraged because it does seem that there isn't as much
scope for massive improvements as I had hoped.

Thanks!

And it all started when pkgchck spat a core at me last week
so I started to look at it. One thing sort of led to another...
