Hi.
	I got tiny 386BSD (dist.fs and fixit.fs) installed on a Synergistic 
Computer,Inc's 486DX-33 with a Maxtor 200 Mb hard drive and 16 Meg RAM.
Now I like to ftp the full 386BSD distribution from my Sparc2.  
I have a Gateway G/Ethertwist 16 bit AT adaptor Ethernet card.  
Can I make this beast to work with 386BSD?  What is the procedure?  
It is using irq2 but 386BSD doesn't know it at startup.  I can't find
any Ethernet card driver (we0, ne0, ec0, or is0) in the stock /dev directory
either.  One more question:  what is npx0 at 0xf0 irq13?  
Is it the parallel card???  Thanks a zillion in advance.
