I have a 33 MHz '486 w/8 MB RAM, a small HD, and a Zip drive (SCSI, not
parallel port). Sure, I'll probably need more RAM (assuming FreeBSD will
even install on a '486), but what I am really wondering is can I install
onto a Zip disk thus avoiding having to partition my HD?

Thanks. Dying to try unix.
