Netbsd 0.8 (I think it was) fails to make the file system. I put Linux on it and it worked... I then upgraded that box to run with an Adaptec and stuff. I'd like to get a taste of *BSD and then upgrade the box if it looks good. I've run both SysIII, SysV, BSD4.X and SunOS boxes -- this isn't another BSD-Linux flame. I'm interested in giving the *bsd stuff a work out since I kind of prefer some of the BSDisms -- but I can't blow $$$ on the box without a preview look. Bill mail any responses to mon-se1.army.mil -- the maps to this home Linux box are still screwed up. I mailed new ones and I'm working to get a good MX forwarder... -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bill Pechter | The postmaster always pings twice.
