- This sounds like it should be fine for 386BSD. You should be aware that with
- only 4 Meg of RAM you may be doing quite a bit of swapping with X-windows
- running. This was my experience running ISC unix and X11R4 about a year ago.
- It ran unix fine but swapped continuously under X. I then upgraded to 8 Meg
- and have had no problems with either ISC or 386BSD swapping excessively.
