Yes, I already have that image file, used it last year to setup this
box. However, I am looking for the script used to create that image. I
don't think it is the same script as above, mkimg (referenced therin) is
not available on 9.3R:
[root at kabini1, /etc, 8:23:44am] 613 % which mkimg
mkimg: Command not found.
[root at kabini1, /etc, 8:23:46am] 614 % uname -a
FreeBSD kabini1.local 9.3-RELEASE-p24 FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE-p24 #0: Sat
