InfoMagic has put it on CD.  phone (800)800613, email info@infomagic.com

I just received their CD vol2 number2 (NET2, 386BSD0.1(very early), gnu, dos/nt
stuff, & more).  In with my CD there was a flyer telling about some new CDs
that they're releasing on 3/15/93.

  The UNIX CD-ROM (US$50)
   + 386bsd 0.1 w/ all patches released as of 3/1/93
   + Linux
   + Ports of X (base & contrib)
   + Complete GNU source
   + ISO-9660 w/ Rockridge extentions

  The INTERNET CD-ROM (US$50)
   + RFCs, IENs, NetInfo docs
   + BSD NET2
   + WinSock docs
   + Packet drivers, GNU source, X source (base, fixes & contrib)
   + ISODE 8.0
   + UNIX network software (ftpd, inetd, routed, etc)
   + DOS ports of Gnu Emacs, Gnu c/c++
   + NT ports & CompuServe libraries

If these CDs are like mine (vol2no2), then all of the 386BSD stuff
are in the raw distributed form (broken, compressed, cpio format)
There is no .../filesystem on my CD.  Hopefully, they will include
this on the new CDs.
