I'm in dire need of help in regards to the installation process for 386BSD.
I've had a few problems that I either can't find in the FAQ or can't understand.
Here are the problems:

I've got a notebook computer with an internal 60meg HD, but I've got
a SCSI hd of 300 megs.  Since the SCSI drive can only be the second disk,
How do i get BSD installed on the SCSI drive, but the boot info on the internal
IDE drive?

How do I go about getting info on the writing of device drivers for X386?

Where can I get a kernel with all the patches to date applied?

I thank you in advance for your help.
