Hi, re:

I would like to fit a FreeBSD 4.10 system (not pico or anything like that) onto a 16 megabyte IDE flash drive.

and

I thought there was some kind of elegant mechanism where you could edit make.conf or something, ...

You may be thinking of nanobsd in the -CURRENT tools:

/usr/src/tools/tools/nanobsd

(no doc but the source (makefile really) is pretty simple.)
