Seems to happen entirely since weekend. BTW: agate.berkeley.edu is
reachable without problems via barrnet, see the enclosed traceroutes.
Looks as if the problem is between pppl.es.net and t3.nsf.net.

Hi folks.  Basic questions about shared libraries in 386bsd.
I'm looking to get a 486 system to run 386bsd on, and need
to judge how much disk space I need.  Since I plan to run X
on the thing, shared libraries impact heavily on my disk space
considerations.

Apparently someone has implemented shared libs for 386bsd.
The questions are:
1) how easy/hard is it to get/install?
2) has anyone produced Xfree86 binaries compiled for
   shared libs (or will this be made available soon?)
   Failing this, how easy/hard is it to compile the sources
   oneself, using shared libs?
3) How much disk space are we looking at for bsd, all extensions,
   and X using shared libs?

Any help greatly appreciated.
