Thanks for the offer. For my purposes, I'm locked on 1.8 as a target
for this CD since it will be in semi-production here in a couple
weeks.

Nevertheless, I'm probably going to check out HEAD and build a vkernel on
it (can I run a HEAD vkernel on a 1.8 machine?) just to play with this
feature. It sure would be nice to test the installer from the ISO I am
burning. 

I'd also like to give kudos to those who wrote the installer, it is
much more of a joy to work with than FreeBSD's old 4.X one. 

Finally, does it make sense to still use the term "MFC"? There's
no -current to merge from anymore. Maybe use 'MFH'? ;)
