So I have a couple of questions.... Could someone tell me where I can get an up-to-the-minute source version of 386bsd, the patch kits, and a kernel that supports multiple drives? Is there a newer unoffical FAQ than the 9th of August one by Terry Lambert? On the subject of multiple drives, I have just obtained a scsi drive and controller. At the moment, the machine boots up on the old ide drive which is partitioned (20+80=100) and it was an 80 meg 386bsd + a 20 meg dos, using fdsik and /usr/distbin/shutdown -todos to switch between booting off one or the other. Now I have an extra disk, is it possible to boot from the second disk as well as the first? Or is the way to do it to keep a dos and a 386bsd partition on the first disk and then mount the second disk in /etc/fstab? Im glad to see someone has implemented ACLs under 386bsd though- that'll be the first thing I'll try to get to work Thanks in advance, James Andrews james@sol1.uel.ac.uk
