Hello, 386bsd gurus.
I've got a little problem I've been working on for a week or so, but
never having setup a un*x system before, I'm a bit perplexed.

When trying to re-compile the kernel in order to include Xfree86-1.3,
I was unable to get a working kernel, and the machine wouldn't even
boot from the HD.  I had to boot off floppy to get it up again.

HELP!

Muchas gracias.
