I have installed the complete 386-dist and X386BSD binaries. After modification of the kernel, applying two patches and increasing the swap partition, my system is reasonably stable now. Well When i start X with xinit, i receive the two lines of banner and the machine just hangs infinitely iuntil rebooted. My config is: 466 / 33 Mhz 486 /33 Mhz 16 Mb ram SCSI Adaptec 1542 with Miniscribe 9380 ( 300 Mb ) com1, com2 and lpt1 Tseng Labs vga with ET4000 Western Digital WE 8003E I have 32 Mb of swap This configuration If somebody have an idea of whats failing pls give me a e-mail. The most logical reason of failure is of course myself, but there can as well be something undocumented. Hints and suggestions is warmly welcome. Dan Andersson /// dana@theta.me.chalmers.se
