	I'm sorry to ask such a dumb question - How do I setup 386BSD
for a non-netorked system.  I currently do not have a network card but
would like to be able to run XFree86 on my system.  When I invoke the
server (X386), it bombs with a message like 'Binding TCP socket: Can't
assign requested address'.  Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.  Many 
thanks in advance.
