FreeBSD, XS3 and the 1542C are all happy together. :) (Note that the 1542C is not happy with all ide controllers though...) Also, steer WAY clear of the 386bsd 0.1 distribution at all costs! With FreeBSD and NetBSD (and heck, even linux), there isn't any real reason I know of to attempt a 386bsd installation at this point in time. -john -- == John Fieber ================================== Young Science Library == == jfieber@sophia.smith.edu ======= Smith College, Northampton MA 01063 ==
