Hello, I just finished installing the absolute minimum of netbsd-1.0 on my
386. I would have done more, but I have only a 45 meg drive. My
problem is that the kernel which ships with 1.0 seems to have no ppp
support in it. I was wondering if some kind soul could either build a
kernel with that support for me, or pass theirs over if it had ppp
built in. I also need support for the Etherlink ethernet card.
I realize most of you are not running 1.0, and that 1.1 is almost out,
but this machine is uspposed to be gateway to the world and a means by
which to net-install a full system on my hp300. In light of that, I
would rather get it up now than get a better system later as once I
get it up, I can get the hp up, and then I can upgrade the 386.
Thanks in advance for any help.
also, are their collections of kernels anywhere? I know the amiga
port has a stock-pile at ftp.uni-regensburg.de, but I dont know of any
such sites for the i386 port, and I did not find anything at
ftp.iastate.edu, ftp.netbsd.org, ftp.eecs.umich.edu, or ftp.wasabi.com
Thanks again
Bart Niswonger
