I think buying one driver would be sufficient, provided it comes with source code. :-) Just as a side-note, i've decided that 1 GB was too much for the Winblows on my kid's computer, and used 500 MB for FreeBSD there, too. I've installed the August 1 SNAP since i've had this CD-ROM handy, and it didn't have any problems with the Toshiba 54 ATAPI drive. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
