I just found out that they are giving away old 386's at my school tomorrow. I don't know anything about them, other than that they are 386's (and have a monitor/keyboard/hard drive). a) how likely is it that I could actually get this machine to install FreeBSD? b) could it handle being a router/firewall to a two-machine lan (behind a cable modem)? If this were a 486 I'd be relatively comfortable of my chances..... TjL ps -- how much HD space do I need for a basic system (commandline, no X stuff) to handle NATD? Thanks for any help at all....
