Hello!
Well, I did it. NetBSD-0.9 (not current) is installed (much faster
than installing OS/2, let me tell you!) My thanks to all of those
people who helped with advice, and most of all to those who made the
software possible/available (ie. you NetBSD guys).
A couple of questions though:
a) the INSTALL_NOTES tells me to run `configure' after I extract
the distriburtions (base09, etc09, ...). However, `configure'
isn't recognized when I type it at the shell prompt, and I can't
seem to find it in the file system. Any suggestions?
b) this may be unimportant, but the install notes also mention
files such as /etc/sendmail.cf which is also absent from the
file system.
Any help would be much appreciated.
