Hi,

I have two questions at the moment about FreeBSD (I have just
started trying to install it):

1) What settings (IRQ, Port addresses, RAM address) does the ed0
device driver look for?  I have tried a number but had no luck.

2) How does one upgrade a 386bsd system to FreeBSD - there is no
indication in the FreeBSD release of how to do this?  (I don't
want to trash my 386bsd trying to do this.)

Geoff
