What are the system requirements for running 386BSD with XFree86; I do not need any networking, mail etc. support. Can this support be removed? Is it necessary to have the sources? Where can I find information on what X is all about? Is it possible to run DOS software from 386BSD? Email replies are preferable because news expires fairly rapidly here. Thanks for any assistance Ian ibarrett@casper.cs.uct.ac.za
