[CUWiN] Soekris images not quite right?

Hi,

I decided to re-image a soekris node that was misbehaving (my first;
someone else had done all the previous configs), and I've run into a bit
of a problem...

After installing the CUWiN 0.6.0 Soekris image using the metrix PXE boot
images, I noticed that the disk is not being fully utilized:

# df -k
Filesystem  1K-blocks      Used     Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/wd0a       22615     22010      -525   102%    /
mfs:8              47        40         4    90%    /dev
mfs:1242         7223      1456      5406    21%    /mfs
/etc            22615     22010      -525   102%    /permanent/etc
/home           22615     22010      -525   102%    /permanent/home
/tmp            22615     22010      -525   102%    /permanent/tmp
/var            22615     22010      -525   102%    /permanent/var
/mfs/etc         7223      1456      5406    21%    /etc
/mfs/home        7223      1456      5406    21%    /home
/mfs/tmp         7223      1456      5406    21%    /tmp
/mfs/var         7223      1456      5406    21%    /var


Disklabel shows that I should have more like 31248 blocks available:

5 partitions:
#        size    offset     fstype [fsize bsize cpg/sgs]
 a:     62497        63     4.2BSD      0     0     0  # (Cyl.      0*-    488*)
 c:     62497        63     unused      0     0        # (Cyl.      0*-    488*)
 d:    125056         0     unused      0     0        # (Cyl.      0 -    976)
 e:     62496     62560     4.2BSD      0     0     0  # (Cyl.    488*-    976)
#

It seems to be causing me no end of trouble. The greatest of which is that if I
update anything in the web configuration, /etc/cuw_config gets wiped out, and
the node gets knocked off the network.

Is there some trick to properly prep a soekris node that I've missed?

Cheers,
