	I've been trying to install 386bsd on a 486-33 with a Quantum(80Mb) 

hard drive without success. When the installation procedure begins the hard 

drive is formatted and then the sys files are written but then WHAM*! 

suddenly I get a message "can't locate adress" or something. And also the 

system is *read only*. A friend of mine successfully installed linux and 

I'm starting to think about checking it out, but I like 386bsd because of 

the resources that come with it. Someone please advise me.


		A FRIEND FROM UP THERE IN CANADA EH!
