It'd be interesting to see if we could get a boot loader that has an 
option to boot a backup
image, or maybe off network.. I know that by the time we got this far 
we are supposed to be
beyond that, but who knows what is actually possible.

I'd love to see a picoBSD image available for booting in emergencies. 
Whether in it's own partition,
or just a file in the root partition (or wherever) that can be loaded 
as a root filesystem.
having the ability to recover from really bad screwups is why you need 
the menus in the first place usually.

not sure what is really possible.
