Date: 10 Jun 1994 14:59:41 -0400 Organization: University of Prince Edward Island Lines: 15 Distribution: world Message-ID: <2ta9md$ms@atlas.cs.upei.ca> NNTP-Posting-Host: atlas.cs.upei.ca Would it be possible to run FreeBSD/XFree86 (or are they the same?) on a 286 box with 2meg? I'm not looking to use it as my primary OS, I want to look at it before I put anything on the 486 that'll hopefully be here soon.. Before I download x meg, could someone tell me if BSD or any other, free, Unix/clone will work on a 286? :Jason -- ============================================================================= = Jason Mroz am832@freenet.carleton.ca (Mail here hardly ever read) = = Shelley Halliday shallida@atlas.cs.upei.ca (Mail here gets to me faster) = ============================================================================= = The opinions expressed here are those of the authors, you can't have 'em! = =============================================================================
