With compliments to FreeBSD's advanced three stage bootloader things
like this is very easy to do :-) The boot mechanism is one of the hidden
gems in FreeBSD.

I've compiled a new a new Xserver and I'll see if I can get time to try
it out this evening. I've also compiled a new rdesktop from their cvs
repository I'd like to get redirection to a local printer working too so
I can put these boxes in production.

Printer & disk redirection is working nicely on my "normal" FreeBSD
machines with rdesktop from cvs.
