I have an 80186 with NO hard disk and a 16 line liquid crystal screen that doesn't do graphics, 256K memory + 256K memory in the expansion box which has *TWO* 5.25" floppies. It doesn't have a turbo switch! It has a "speadsheet" program on a plug in EPROM. But of course it can't run FreeBSD terribly well. In fact, not at all really. 8-) Hell, it couldn't even run DOS very well at V1.1 Exactly which bit of FreeBSD do you put on that 40M disk? -- John Birrell CIMlogic Pty Ltd jb@cimlogic.com.au 119 Cecil Street Ph +61 3 9690 6900 South Melbourne Vic 3205 Fax +61 3 9690 6650 Australia Mob +61 18 353 137
