I got 386bsd installed on a memorex 7035 PC. This was diffecult, but
it's running now. The problem is that the srcdist, and bindist don't
seem to unpack correctly, so I can't recompile the kernel. I want to
add the patch for X11R5 so I have to recompile. It looks like some of 
the src files are incomplete. The first error is in vmparam.h, it ends
with an '#endif' however there is no '#if' in the file. When I unpack
the srcdist I get the error, 'install.src01 not found'. It looks like
I can't unpack the srcdist on my machine. Disk space is no problem. I
have a 40Mb local disk, and 1Gb mounted NFS, the /usr filesystem is 
on the NFS disk.
