I'm not yet running a 386bsd system and have only recently got the
distributions sets. I've written the new dist.fs.pk-0.2 filesystem
to a floppy (from a Sun - dd if=dist.fs.pk-0.2 of=/dev/rfd0c bs=9k),
in an attempt to test this I booted a portable (which happened to be
close at the time [don't know the spec]) with the disk. It came up
with no problem (better than most commercial releases!!!) I was just
having a quick look round and I typed 'pwd' which obviously does not
exist on the floppy, I got the 'cant exec /bin/pwd' (or something
close) message. After this every directory appears empty!! Is this
normal?


This may be a question that's been asked before but I can't find any
references...

I'm looking at getting a SCSI card for my PC, the price of these varies
quite dramatically from about 20 pounds for an ST01/02 up to about 180
pounds for an Adaptec 154x, with the Future Domain ones in the middle.

I have read somewhere (I can't remember where) that the Seagate ST01/02
cards ONLY work with DOS and ONLY support drives up to 100MB. Is this
true? Do they have an external SCSI connector for CD-ROM etc...

What kind of SCSI card support is there for 386BSD now! - I have read
the messages in the SCSI source directory and there are references to
both the Seagate and Future Domain controllers, with a note that says
something like there are just a bit more than a dream!! - is that up
to date?


Another question i'm sure's been asked!!

I've currently got a IDE controller, i've also got a MFM controller
and drive! - can I get these to co-exist!

And...

A while ago there were some mutterings about DOS emulation from within
386BSD, did anything come of this?  Are there any implementations?


Thanks,
