I am very much interested in a CDROM with either 386bsd (or Linux)
on it.  Yes I do understand the legal problems that may exists but
I wasn't previously aware that some CDroms had already been made
with 386bsd on them.  I would be grateful if anybody could
tell me where I could get such a CDROM.

thanks
