I think his question is essentially something I'd asked long time ago
- how to create a LiveCD from a pre-installed environment. Sort of
like the FreeSBIE (FreeBSD), Linux, or NetBSD live CDs floating out
there. Basically, you have a running environment with configured
applications such as Firefox
The DragonFly /usr/src/nrelease process can be used to build any
live-cd, it doesn't have to be an install-cd. It's very modular but
you need to play around with it to find the right combination of base
packages to include before you roll in the custom changes that it wouldn't

OK, that answers part of the question - we can create live CDs.
How about the compressed filesystem? Does Dfly have anything similar
to SquashFS (Linux) or cloop2 (FreeBSD/NetBSD) so we can cram a lot of
software in the 700MB ISO limit?
Thanks in advance.

No, we don't have that. This could be a

I may be starting a flamewar with this question, so I apologize in advance.
Some time ago there was a discussion about the status of SMP in Dfly.
As far as I can remember, the developers behind Dfly said that the SMP
implementation is currently not on their schedule, even though
progress was made

So my question is - has a decision been made on the SMP development?
In other words - is it still on the list of tasks to do, will it be
native Dfly implemenation, or will it be a port of FreeBSD's
implementation?
I think it's on the list;

Not a developer, but from what I know DragonFly will not be using FreeBSDs
SMP implementation

As a related point, I really want to contribute this server CD back, but
I'm concerned it's not good enough for the standards that many of you
have for these things; it's really not clean yet according to my own
standards. The issues I see
