I am kinda new to this, not unix, but PC unix. I hear the 386bsd is
much better then Linux and would like to install it, but before I do
I would like to ask some questions.
1) I have 2 hard drives. A WD 210 meg IDE, and a Conner 120meg IDE. The
installation notes do not explain how to install 386bsd on a D: drive.
Or on a C: drive with a dos partision on D:. Is there a way to do this?
I really can't install it without doing the 2 drive thing.
2) Is there any support out there for QIC-40 yet?
3) Is there any support for COM ports above 2? I have an internal modem on
com4 with the other 2 comm ports being used for a second modem and a
mouse.
4) Is there anyplace I can send to, to get the full distribution without
having to down load it all? That is a heck of alot of stuff to down
load at 14.4.
Thanx for all your help that will come, I hope. :)
Albion
P.S. Has anyone here tried to install LPMud on 386bsd? Just wondering,
please no flames for this.
