Anyone remember how much fun it was to install? Yeah. I had to buy another disk (since it occupied an entire disk only, and i wasn't ready for getting rid of DOS by that time :), and to ``borrow'' a coprocessor from my employer that happened to sit around idling there. ;-) Later on, i've got very used to the idea of occupying an entire disk, and i couldn't understand what a stinkin' fdisk table might be for. ``DD mode'' is the result... "Don't forget to make depend." (Those who still remember 386BSD 0.0 will quickly get the joke. For all the others, i'll solve the puzzle in the next followup if nobody did it before me. :*) -- 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. ;-)
