Initial import of Jared Mcneill's script to create a memory stick from a

NetBSD installation ISO.

	memory stick the easy way

	I got tired of having to jump through hoops to install NetBSD on my
	Eee PC, so I wrote a simple script to take a NetBSD release ISO and
	convert it to an image that can be written to a USB memory stick.

	To use the script, simply feed it an ISO and tell it where to write
	the resulting image:

	$ sh mkmemstick.sh i386cd-5.0.1.iso i386memstick-5.0.1.img

	The resulting image can be written to a memory stick using dd(1):

	$ dd if=i386memstick-5.0.1.img of=/dev/sd0d

	Please note that this script depends on the sysutils/cdrtools package
	for extracting the contents of the release ISO.

	Hopefully this will be integrated with the build process so these
	images are available for those who cannot prepare an image due to lack
	of access to a NetBSD machine.
