I however have a 40M hard drive I would like to generalize the question: Is anyone out there seriously thinking about porting 386BSD to a Motorola platform? I have followed the Maach for Mac development but it seems that you still need a BSD source license which our CC will never get. It seems that the GNU Hurd is still years away, so 386BSD looks like the only unencumbered choice for a really free Unix-like OS. -- Volker -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bitnet: UNM409@DBNRHRZ1 Volker A.
