I am also interested in obtaining a copy of 386BSD.
By the way, I tried to compile the bootstrap programs of the first
article in Dr. Dobb's Journal. I used DJ's GCC for MS-DOS and Turbo C 2.0
for compiling these programs.
Trying to run the bootstrap loader I got the message that the generated
386 executable didn't have a correct magic number, so it couldn't be
loaded.
Does anyone know any solution to this problem? I don't have a mini-computer
for cross-compiling 386 programs, so I can't use GCC for cross-compilation.
Thanx in advance,
Michael
