Hello,

I've got some question to linux/386BSD:

(1)	Are floppy-streamers supported? As far as I can see there are various
       	diskussions about this term in the newsgroups, but I didn't see a 
	success-info. SCSI is supported (as far as I know), but this is
	extremly expensive ;-) (double costs). If it isn't done yet, please
	let me know about the actual situation (anybody working on it or
	so). I would like to help, but I want to buy the new hardware AFTER
	being informed about it!

(2)	Did anyone get the olvwm run? Or any other window-manager, which
	supports virtual windowing? My 14''-monitor is too small for 5 or
	more xterms ;-) .

Thanks in advance.

Hans
