Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I am running MS Windows 98 BETA 3, but want to setup a Web Server for FTP, E-mail, HTTP, Gopher etc. I was reccomended Red Hat Linux 5, so I got a GNU Version for $5, when I installed it, it really messed up my hard drive partitions!! In fact, 1 gig of my data is still in NON-DOS Format, and it won't change back! Here's the major thing.....I want to see what a UNIX System is like, but after what happened with Linux, I am afraid of the results, here's what I though I might do....find a way to install it to my old 386 Computer, it doesn't have a modem, only s floppy drive and 175 Meg Hard Drive....how do I install it? Can I get FreeBSD from the net and onto Floppy?
