When FBSD 2.2 first came out, InfoMagic cancelled production on its
current
BSDiscs to produce a new BSDisc. "Coming in March 97 -- preorders being
accepted"
it said. Well now 2.2.1 is out and they're still "Coming in April 97."
In short,
unless you REALLY need to save $5 and get both FBSD and NetBSD, buy
direct from
Walnut Creek.
