This release is not an ideal one, as this entry from the KNOWNBUGS
file will attest:

o For some reason which I'm still tracking down, /usr/libexec/telnetd and
  possibly other binaries are missing from the bin distribution.

  Temporary workaround:  Always extract the DES distribution to get
  a working telnetd.  International users will have to wait for a 2.2 DES
  dist or try the 2.1 RELEASE version.

But it seems to work well enough for 2.2 snapshot testers, and it also
contains a copy of Poul-Henning's `4MB install' floppy for those of
you stuck with 4MB machines.

Usual caveats: This is very early 2.2 code and may cause system
malfunction, blindness or sterility!  Use at your own risk!  No
warrantee expressed or implied!

New Things In This Release (that I can remember) post 2.1R:
-----------------------------------------------------------
4MB installation
experimental IPX support
experimental PCCARD support
Drivers for ARNET (now Digiboard) Sync 570/i card
Drivers for 3COM 3C590/3C595 card
Revamped Adaptec 2940 support
Worm driver support for some CDR drives
VM system performance enhancements
Various userland updates, kernel fixes, etc.

Good luck!
