That sounds very useful, even for NetBSD users like myself, since most things will run without change on either system (and the pkg stuff seems really neat!). In view of "recent events", I guess NetBSD will not be included? Does anybody know of other CD-ROM companies that _might_ include NetBSD on one of their CD-ROMs. I think I've heard of "Yggdrasil" in the context of Linux CDs. Any others? Surely there would be enough demand, at least to squeeze it onto some other CD. Bob -- "Rose bushes have thorns; thorn bushes bear roses"
