Hello.

I have Soekris net4801 gateway/firewall and it only has 128Mb of RAM.
I usually upgrade to -current by putting the CF card into a different
machine, since writing to CF card is slow on Soekris, but tonight I
upgraded to -current using the box itself and timed how long it took to
relink the kernel - 25 minutes.
It has 256Mb of swap. Eh, 259.9M apparently.

After-reboot relinking is currently disabled until I figure out
what to put in the new bsd.re-config to change flags for
wd to 0x0ff0 automatically, no luck yet.
