If I may jump in here.  One way to do the build up vs. cut down thing
is to break up more of the system into understandable chunks, but that
takes work.  Then it's easier to build up a system from components.

I'll take a look at nanonbsd hopefully this week anyways, as I need to
get it running in a VM as well as on a Soekris at home.  I make no
promises.  The last system I worked with that did a componentization
got it very very wrong.

Later,
George
