Nanobsd - build options not producing image

[Lyle Scott III]

I am trying to trim down my nanobsd image by specifying some build time
options.  The system works great when I leave all the options in.

I try to add the options that the FreeBSD handbook (
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/nanobsd/index.html)
states OR the options discussed in
http://www.mail-archive.com/freebsd-small@freebsd.org/msg00518.html

The freebsd handbook example options will not even let me finish the nanobsd
script.. it exits early and just stops.

With the second link, everything seems to finish but i only have a few files
in /usr/obj/nanobsd_alix
_.bk                                              _.env
_.bw                                             _.etc
_.cust.add_pkgs                        _.ik
_.cust.cust_allow_ssh_root      _.iw
_.cust.cust_comconsole           _.w
_.cust.cust_install_files            make.conf
_.cust.cust_nobeastie              usr

i am currently about to start from scratch and start trimming more and
more... but it's going to take forever :)

Any insights why it breaks?
