Indeed.  I was building my first live cd back then.  It used quite a
lot of firmlinks to overcome the limitations of a read-only root

with my new live cd effort, and that the new one is much cleaner.

I thought we have commit-hurd@ for that?  Otoh looking at its archive,
this is a rather noisy list.  Not sure anyone would want to read that.

I will :) (once I got more spare time again...)
