Just call DmCreateDatabaseFromImage() with a pointer to the contents of the
file (prc, pdb, or pqa).  Trivial.

You do run into the problem of requiring the device to have double the
amount of storage available as the file you're installing, unfortunately.
Getting around that would require parsing the data coming through the ftp
pipe and installing it a record or resource at a time.  Doable, but
considerably more code than a single API call :-)
