I posted it to misc for general archival. When creating diskless systems that do not use pxeboot, I use mfs mount points to construct userland in memory from a bsd.rd kernel. I can do this with a modified rdroot with shadow paths and symlinks. An alternate binary path with the default instbin will suffice while replacing /sbin and /bin paths. Then, any setup media (hd, cd) can be unmounted. Anyone wanting to do the same will find this patch useful.
