Okay,
   I've gotten one machine running but now I'd like to have 386BSD on my 
personal computer at home.  I currently have the following config:

386/33 MHz w/ 124 MB Hard Drive (drive 0)
	      213 MB Hard Drive (drive 1)
	      Both HD floppies
	      8 MB RAM

So how would I be able to get 386BSD on to the 213 Meg HD (d:) and 
keep Messy-DOS on the 124 Meg (c:)?  
Does 386BSD need to be on drive 0?  or doesn't it matter?

I've downloaded the latest os-boot-select util but it didn't come with much 
in the way on instructions.

Is there a installation FAQ for installing bsd on a DOS machine with 
requirements for system config's?

-Greg
