- Well I must say I was even luckier!
- I'm using a 40Mhz 386 motherboard (AMD processor)
- IDE controller + Western Digital 200MB drive
- ET4000 SVGA
- double serial + parallel IO board
- all this stuff no-name made in Taiwan. The only known brand board is
- my SMC Elite 8003 Ethernet board.
-
- I had a 50MB DOS 5.0 partition on the disk. I booted from the floppy
- configured the hard disk and after 5 minutes I was installing bindist,
- srcdist and etcdist from my SparcStation (and jumping with joy!)
- Now I'm using the 0.1.40 kernel available on agate and have compiled
- X11R5 and OSF/Motif without problems in just about 150MB.
