I guess I can join the list of people who have got bsd386-0.1 working.
The only problem I have other than 4MB of ram isn't enough
is the ne2000 compat. ethernet card.

I remember others compaining of slow response possibly due to conflicts
with the VGA card.  Well could anyone out there who has had this problem
fill me in on what they did to fix it.  I have tried changing interrupts
but it is still pretty slow (~5-8 K/s).  What interrupts and i/o address
are you all using?  

Thanks,
Richard.
