When 386BSD came out, I was one of the first to try to install
it. To my dismay, I found out that my MCA bus crippled me, I
could not join in the quest for the great free unix system, damn!!!

Version 0.1 still doesn't support MCA, well thats what the INSTALL.NOTES
says. Are there any plans for MCA support or should I just sob myself to
sleep or even worse buy a commercial version , Arghhhh, now that I got
this out of my system I feel better :-).
