Geeze, remember when we started, I had a 4Mb 25Mhz > 486 when we did 1.0, things have changed a lot in the last few years :-) Ahh, the good 'ol days, when you could build a kernel in less than 10 minutes on a 486/33 cause we were using gcc 1.4. The amount of resources required to do development has changed *ALOT* since 1.X. My 486/66 is slower than my 486/33 was in doing a 'make world' in 1.1.5 and 2.X than it was in 1.0. Having said that, I think that it would be nice if the project could help John out with a faster box, but given how difficult that is I'm not sure how. Nate
