This is great! Been looking for this for a while. Just created a
couple test images without any issues or surprises.

Does anyone have any suggestions for persisting configuration changes
to floppy or other media like USB stick? I don't want to create a new
image every time a firewall rule changes, and I need changes to
persist after a reboot.
I'm having a hard time finding information on this subject. I was
hoping for something a little more elegant than mounting a floppy via
fstab and using symlinks to relocate configuration files like
"/etc/sysconfig/iptables". I'd like to use a single image for several
machines. Each hostname, firewall rules, ip addresses, etc would be
saved on a floppy that's specific to that machine.
Thanks,
Ken
