Hi netters!
I have 8 386(no copro) running with 386bsd and joining an ethernet with  
other workstations.
Now I finally got a 486 as server and all 386 will be upgraded with a  
copro! So here is my question:
What do I have to do to make'em use the coprocessor?
Will it do to recompile the kernel with some options,
or do I have to install it all over again?

Thanks in advance, Peter.
