I am about to install 386bsd for the first time on a new machine. There is
obviously a complete new patchkit going to be here real-REAL soon now.
Should I wait for this before patching my system, or should I go ahead with
the existing patchkit? I can see only two factors: 1) When is the new
patchkit going to be here? 2) Will it expect the existing system to have
had the previous patches applied, does it work on a raw 0.1 system, or is
it perfectly happy with either?
Thanks,
Mark.
