Hi, My name is Dorin Scutarasu. I recently read some really interesting articles about Unix and the open source comunity and I want to install a BSD on my computer. I have an old computer (an AMD 80486 DX2 at 80Mhz) with very little disk space available(about 50MB). It is running Windows 95 but I really want to install an Unix based OS on it (preferably FreeBSD). I have been searching for an old FreeBSD release on the web that is small enough to fit on my computer but I couldn't find one. Could you please help me find some old releases I could try ? The smallest I could find is release 2.2.8 but it's to big, so I need an older one. It should be a 10 -15 MB download. I don't mind if it woun't have a graphical interface and I'll just be typing at the command prompt :-) . It would be great if the release would include a C/C++ compiler too. Thank you, Dorin Scutarasu --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free, easy-to-use web site design software
