Hello...

I had the inclination to dump MSDOS and Windows (gack) and port BSD
to my 386DX/33...  I found myself in the 386bsd newsgroups... and
then checked out berekely's ftp directories... Eek!  I don't know
where to begin.

How do I get all the files I need, transfer them to floppy, then
install to my machine ?  (I'd prefer not to download em from my
UN*X account since I have to pay for my dial-up time ):

Is there a FAQ on starting from the bottom ?

Thanks!
