Let me correct myself: NetBSD and FreeBSD both have deep roots in 4.3BSD NET/2, 386BSD, and 4.4BSD Lite. NetBSD is not a fork of FreeBSD but OpenBSD is a fork of NetBSD. DragonFly BSD is a fork of FreeBSD 4.x, etc. etc. With all the inbreeding it's hard to remember who's your daddy. :-) http://www.levenez.com/unix/history.html#08 http://www.svbug.com/historybsd2.html http://cisx1.uma.maine.edu/~wbackman/bsdtalk/bsdtalk018.mp3 http://cisx1.uma.maine.edu/~wbackman/bsdtalk/bsdtalk029.mp3 http://www.netbsd.org/Misc/history.html http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/history.html
