Hey Mark,
Your script is great! - very easy to use...
Here are my results:
- post slim.py (b111): 377M (awesome!)
- post `image-update` to b126 and `rm -rf /var/pkg/download/*`: 393M
- post `pkg install xvm-gui` and `rm -rf /var/pkg/download/*`: 896M
BTW, I didn't realize before that I could remove the package files after
installing them. I checked and could've saved 345M from the numbers I
reported before. Before, when using the ISC minimization script, I
reported 2.0G for post pkg install xvm-gui, this *should* have been
1.65G...almost double what using your script enabled!
Now I'm bummed that I just bought a couple 8GB Industrial CFs, I
could've stuck with my 4GB CFs...heck, I probably could've stuck with my
2GB CFs!
Thanks,
Kent

Lastly, below you write "and remove the downloads" - I didn't even
realize that I could save more space by deleting the package files
after installing them - where are they located and is there a special
command needed or is `rm -f` all that's needed?
This is what I do in the script...
"/bin/rm -rf " + mountDir + "/var/pkg/download/*",
