Can I send stuff to the printer with 386bsd?  I don't have the disk space
for the source distribution, and some stuff I read a few minutes ago made
me think that I'd be able to use the printer with a patch installed.  Is
there any way I can run the current patch-level without rebuilding the
kernel myself?  I installed from a 0.1 distribution floppy, but I have
also downloaded the 0.2 distribution.  I know it's not as simple as just
copying that kernel over my current one (or if it is, I messed something up
when I tried it!)  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Erick.
