:How difficult would it be to make a custom DFly CD that would be just enough
:to get my laptop up and running? As long as I can restore some config files
:from a different CD, dhcp an interface, and then fetch source, I think I'd be
:ok. I like the idea of a small restore CD for general reasons, even though I
:remember Matt saying DFly had finally outgrown one. But I was wondering if a
:special purpose CD could be built without *too* much work.

The answer is yes, you should be able to easily fit DragonFly onto
one of those mini-CD's. The main release has indeed outgrown 210MB,
but if you build a normal release and then cd into /usr/release/root
I'll bet you can find bunches of things in there that can be removed,
then regenerate the ISO.
