Okay, thanks to Michael V I find out that NetBSD 1.0 is up for FTP at 
ftp.iastate.edu with floppies and everything for install.  I love it.  I 
am now ready to ftp them all, throw them on disk and walk back to my room 
and install the release.  

WRONG!!  Wouldnt you know it, but it wont install on a machine with only 
one floppy drive...and of course I only have one drive.  My machine is 
not connected to the net, I have no access to download the files, the 
only way is to put them on floppies.  This sucks.

I guess, I wont be installing NetBSD.
