I am considering selling the 386BSD 0.1 distribution on CDROM
through my company, Yggdrasil. The distribution would run $100, with
$60 per CD donated to Lynne and Bill Jolitz, and would include the
following.
o An ISO9660 level 2 CDROM with a copy of the 386BSD 0.1
distribution from agate and an unpacked directory tree
of the distribution,
o Bootable installation diskettes in both 3.5" (1.44MB) and
5.25" (1.2MB) formats. Each of these diskettes would have
a kernel capable of mounting an ISO9660 file system and
a script for installing from the CDROM.
o Installation instructions.
o An Yggdrasil "GNU World Order" T-shirt.
At Bill Jolitz's suggestion, I plan to wait for the first
patch for the early bugs, which should be out "very shortly."
Please send me email if you have any comments or suggestions
about this idea or if you're sure that you'd buy a CD.
