   1) where can I get a 386bsd kernel that includes the 0.2 patches
   and has X support included?   I tried the following from agate,
   but the machine locks up after printing out the boot logo.
   Do these kernels have the 0.2 patches included?

README.386BSD describes the kenrels.  THey have all of patchkit-0.2,
XFree86 support and Julian's scsi drivers.  The names of the kernels
were reversed and the fixed files have been replacements on agate:

kernel-1.2.codrv-fix-1.tar.Z
kernel-1.2.pccons-fix-1.tar.Z

However, if your machine won't boot a patchkit-0.2 kernel, you
probably need to take a closer look at your hardware and the details
of the various patches.  Rich
