Hello world.  I am in a bit of a conundrum.  Several months
ago I obtained the first pieces of the 0.9 distribution and
put them on floppies, namely kc-aha-0.9.fs, inst1-09.fs,
and inst2-0.9.fs.  So I have 3 floppies and can install a
minimal 0.9 system on my newly purchased i386 system.

The trick is that I do not find 0.9 in any of the "usual"
places on the net (gatekeeper, sun-lamp, ftp.iastate, ...).
I have found -current in most all of these places, but I am
not sure I have found all I need to install this on a bare
system.  So can anyone help me?? Where do I go from here??
I have no objection to running 1.0-Beta if I can figure out
where to get it and how to put it onto a bare system.

What ever happened to 0.9 ??
