I would download to floppy if the XFree86 file name is not so long:-(, i would like something like bin01 and src01 and etc01, it is download to dos floppy that way, but not XFree, i think it is more feasible to download from modem, but for the life of me, i still can't figure out how /dev/com0 fit into all this? how to add this information into CONFIG? i tip into com1 which is suppose to be my com2:-( Very illogical but that works. i have recompiled sz rz and also tipp but still no light.? I would really like to find out how many of us here downloaded everything thro modem and how they did it. with 386BSD at the local end. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Milton Choo System Programmer Internet: milton@solomon.technet.sg Technet Unit, Computer Centre
