A couple of questions:
1) This might be a stupid question, but... Is the i386 port of NetBSD is
the one for Intels and AMDs etc?
2) Before I buy a new computer to install and use BSD on properly I am
playing around with it so that I might be more familiar with it before I
use it properly. So I have installed it on a compaq 486 with 12megs of ram
and 340 megs of HDD. According to the install sheet I have, this is enough,
but after the install, it wont boot up from the HDD. It gets to the point
:"Biomask ... ... tty ... " every time and freezes, is this because of not
enough memory or is it some deep and annoying conflict?
Thanks
