I'm going to be gone a few days, so don't expect much from me. I'll try
to work on this when I get back. Until then, here's what I've got on my
ToDo list:

I've updated it again... here are things yet to do, and changes:

Mostly done; needs to be done for images too.
* (1) Fix freeze during setup (after running rcS)
This is probably due to some library or binary producing a SegFault, or
other thing. I'd start by pinpointing which package (on the Setup/Easy
Disk) accounts for the bomb, by removing them one by one until the
problem goes away. Then put others back and see if the problem is still
gone. The problem may be related to ncurses 5, too, but I don't know...

It apparently assumed a minix filesystem; this has been changed. Now
can anyone tell me why mkfs.msdos won't format a ramdisk image?
Something about not being able to figure out the drive's geometry -
funny, minix doesn't have that trouble... I couldn't test with anything
else since I don't have mkfs.<anythingelse> on my LRP, but... it should
work.

* Move ash and busybox to ash.lrp and busybox.lrp, and use lua or
other shell to replace ash and busybox entirely.
