I know David > Greenman still owns a set of 0.0 floppies. I grabbed the red binder labeled "386 bsd" off the top shelf, expecting it to be full of printouts and mail about the 0.0 to 0.1 days. I figured I could find some good quotes in there - but like Joerg I've foolishly reused it for something else. However, I see that we ordered a motherboard and assorted pieces on August 2, 1992 to run 386BSD exclusively by tearing apart a Sony NEWS system and using the pieces to build a bsd system. That system is still online with no changes other than newer disks and a new e-net card - ping hda.com and you'll be pinging it. Never booted an MS OS. We've run on nothing else in house since. This is probably one of the oldest systems purchased exclusively for *bsd. Peter -- Peter Dufault (dufault@hda.com) Realtime development, Machine control, HD Associates, Inc.
