I have been really interested in 386BSD for the last few months as the main
OS that I'll be running once I get my new computer next week, but recently I
have been attracted to a comercial product called interestingly enough BSD386.
Is there an FTP site where I can get some more information on this UNIX or
does anyone here have any experience with it? I do know that it will work
with my system, and in fact I have found no other UNIX that comes with SGCS's
X package. I need this package because it is the only X that will soon support
the Diamond Viper video card. The kind of questions that I want answered now
are of overall speed compared to other UNIXes for the 386/486 and reliability.
I don't want a UNIX that is going to crash every 5 minutes. Thank you!
