Is there any way that I can grab a 1.4.2_ALPHA GENERIC kernel off of
ftp.netbsd.org ? I surfed around but I couldnt find one anywhere on there.
I'd like to avoid downloading the entire syssrc right now since I only have
a modem connection from home < in between jobs :( > I guess if I cant find a
GENERIC 1.4.2_ALPHA or later kernel I can down the syssrc and tool with it
that way. I can drop it on a zip disk I suppose.


cheers
