Anybody knows if NanoBSD can be installed on a hard disk and use it to
store data, logs, etc? for example, for a tiny mail server?

Hello list,
I have an old machine I just acquired that I was thinking of replacing
my current FreeBSD firewall/router with. It's a Celeron 500+ Mhz
machine with 32 Megs of ram, and a 10G hard drive. I am(was) initially
thinking about taking out the 10G, and using the flobby disk drive to
boot off of. I was familiar with PicoBSD years ago and know I could use
that, but it seems that project has been discontinued. After looking
through archives to determine what to do, I can across nanoBSD as that
seems to be included in the FreeBSD system by default, henceforth this
question. I couldn't find any information regarding the smallest image
size possible using NanoBSD. So the question is: can nanoBSD fw/ the
proper configurations fit onto a floppy disk...and if not, is such an
old computer bootable off of a usb stick? How can I tell without buying
one?
Thanks,
~Paul
