This is probably the wrong discussion group, but since smf would be a 
component, I'm starting here ...

I'm attempting to build a custom boot archive for an appliance which has no 
disk.  As such I will be running everything out of a writeable ram-fs and 
running custom code in addition to code built from os-nv.  I would like to 
leverage smf to get my code running rather than hacking inittab to just start 
the things I need.

What I need minimally is:

console login
dhcp client
ssh
syslogd

One of the things I'm struggling with is finding the minimal set of bits to 
stuff in the boot archive such that smf will come up to the single-user 
milestone.

Is there precedent for building such a minimal boot archive?  I realize this is 
an open-ended question - I can supply more details as needed.

thanks
Mark
