WR1043ND - too big kernel

[Piotr Kubaj]

I've installed Hiren's image from May 2013 and it works, but I find it
too limited for my use, e.g. I can't set up DHCP server, since there's
no pkg. That brings me to my previous question - throwing everything but
/boot to USB and then kernel can be bigger. I know that extroot is
possible with WR1043ND - that's what OpenWRT guys do, so it should be
possible with FreeBSD, but I need some guidance since I don't want to
overwrite some important part in ROM. I know I need to change values in
build/build/cfg/tl-wr1043nd.
Another thing is that I don't know how to set it so it uses pendrive as
/. Can anyone help me with that?
