386BSD 0.0 appeared in March, 1992. When i've been looking around for
it on a nearby ftp server, i've seen the word ``Linux'' for the first
time, and i've also been looking a bit around there. But it's been
much earlier than the 0.9X versions appeared (and Linux started to
become more interesting for magazines than before), it must have been
some early 0.17 or so kernel version.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
