- maybe you can remove -lrmt from LIBS line in ramdisk/list
- sbin/dmesg may be smaller than file-system KERNFS + mount_kernfs(8)
  as abs@ said (ramdisk/dot.profile should also be updated in that case)
- src/distrib/common/protocols is much smaller than src/etc/protocols
- using distrib/utils/x_gzip (NO_BZIP2, NO_COMPRESS) might also help?
- should notes/cats/hardwarebe be changed?
  isn't it a list of supported device, not devices in GENERIC/INSTALL?
  (I had not tried isp(4) on cats though)
