I've been trying to install 386BSD on my little notebook
machine but have been unable to create the TinyBSD386 disk
on a 3.5" drive.  I've been using rawrite.exe and the dist.fs
files but have had no success.  How can I create this disk?

I've tried to format the diskette as a 1.2 meg diskette, but
dos 5.0 does not allow this.

thanks
