Message-ID: <2AE325A2.2935@deneva.sdd.trw.com> Sender: news@deneva.sdd.trw.com Organization: TRW Inc., Redondo Beach, CA X-Newsreader: Tin 1.1 local 2 PL4 Date: Mon, 19 Oct 92 21:16:17 GMT Lines: 18 I've install the 386bsd binary distribution and XFree386(still having problems). I tried Installing the source distribution but ran out of space. Ideally I would like to install the etc distribution in addition to the source distribution and have some space left over for whatever. I've come to conclusion that I need to buy another hard drive. My question is what type of drive is best for a 386bsd second drive(IDE,SCSI,etc)? How about size? Anything to avoid? My current system is : Gateway 386/33Mhz 120mb ide drive(90mb partition for 386bsd) 4meg RAM Thanks in advance. Clarence Johnson cjohnson@sonya.sedd.trw.com TRW inc.
