Why? I suspect whatever you are trying to do can be done in easier ways...but... well, I didn't know, but it was pretty easy to find. The install scripts are all plain text and fairly readable, and one can guess that the checksums in bsd.rd are in a file on the ramdisk...so boot bsd.rd grep for a logical string...perhaps "sha" that will point you at a particular file. look around in that file, you should have no problem finding it. you will learn more following that process than me giving you the answer. :) Nick.
