This would make it installable without using a USB CD-ROM on netbooks,
mini-itx pc's and other devices. It's also way faster to boot than a CD
which is great for recovery usage.

Additionally you don't get all those CD's that you never got around to
label collecting dust and getting scratched all over your desktop.

Actually I think burning/booting ISO's is about the only usage my
workstation CD-RW has these days with disk storage being dirty cheap.

$ sudo mount -o loop crux-2.6.iso /media/cdrom/
$ mkdir ~/crux-2.6
$ cd ~/crux-2.6 && sudo /media/cdrom/tools/unsquashfs /media/cdrom/crux.squashfs
$ sudo sed 's|crux_dir=.*|crux_dir=/media/cdrom/crux|' -i ~/crux-2.6/squashfs-root/usr/bin/setup
$ sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/
$ sudo ~/crux-2.6/squashfs-root/usr/bin/setup
$ sudo ~/crux-2.6/squashfs-root/usr/bin/setup-chroot
bash-4.0#

Kind regards,
