- Hi everyone,
-
- OK, my dad just bought 2 486s and has given one to me and I'd like
- to install Mach3 and bsdss. I've already got the source and everything
- via sup from my sun workstation, so that's not a problem.
-
- My question(s) is/are:
- 1) a) are the filesystems used by 386BSD and Mach3/bsdss compatible?
- b) could I use 386BSD to install Mach3/bsdss?
-
- 2) Does anyone have a simpler/better installation procedure, or
- would someone be able to supply me with a floppy-based boot disk
- and some default partitions to install?
-
- Thanks, the help is appreciated.
