I am interested in repartitioning my DOS har disk drive so that I will be
able to run a version of UNIX on it. At present I am considiring either
using 386BSD or Linux. Basically, I want one with the most support for
my DOS hardware, one that will run X Windows, and one that will mount my
DOS HArd drive in unix. I am of the understanding that both Linux and

SunOS, any would probably like something thats fairly similar to it.
Please E-MAIl any ideas to:
