@stefano @netbsd Did you know you can just put fs ramdisk.fs in your boot.cfg to make the bootloader load a ramdisk from the same volume it loaded the kernel from? No need for mdsetimage!

(Only x86 or platforms with efiboot for now, like arm.)

@riastradh @stefano @netbsd I did not!!! If I had known this, I would have saved some time on Sunday.
