You know, I just realized that "xvm-gui" adding 500M may be excessive
for me as I don't really need a "gui"... I was just following these
instructions, but I only use command-line tools like `virt-install`
and `xm` - is there an opportunity to save even more space installing
something less "gui" oriented?
Also, just for kicks, if I do have a GUI installed, how do I access it?
- desktop application or web browser?
Thanks,
Kent

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
