Well, it looks like the 0.2 release is going to (1) take quite a while,
(2) probably have a period of major instability, and (3) be incompatible
at the kernel level with BSDI. Sounds like it might be worthwhile to build
a one-pass install kit to at least pk0.2.1 level to make things easier for
folks who can't wait.
