- Hi folks.
- We are trying to decide whether to go with linux or 386bsd for
- our 486 machines. Particular constraints are:
-
- We don't have a lot of disk space.
- We need X11.
- We don't have a lot of memory per machine.
- We don't have cd roms
-
- Any information on the relative strengths/weaknesses of these
- two systems would be a big help. Please email info to harm@morue.usc.edu
-
- Thanks much!
