I believe I am asking a stupid question, but anyway, here it goes.

I checked the faq in ftp.cdrom.com /pub/FreeBSD/FAQ but I found
that the faq is always refering to 386BSD.

In this newsgroup (comp.os.386BSD) everyone is talking about
FreeBSD rather than 386BSD. So are 386BSD and FreeBSD the same
animal? If no, what is their relationship?

Thanks in advance.
