    There is this article
    http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=openbsd-misc&m=96282707812765&w=2
    which may or may not be the direction you want to go.
    This has a link to:
    http://www.xs4all.nl/~dobbe/kindofblue10.tgz

    Maybe using crunchgen might help. I would imagine that a modified bsd.rd
    would be a good starting point as well. Someone did describe (was it
    Theo) making these bootdisks was something along the lines of "magic
    goes here".
