Are there any others in the Portland area interested in exploring the world
of free/low-cost unix clones?

I have Linux up an running, haven't tried BSD386 yet.

Looking for others to swap sw/ horror stories, bounce ideas, etc.

I have also been playing around with Linux. I have MCC-interim 0.97pl2,
H.J. Lu's 0.98 root and base disks available on my BBS, The Digital
Amateur 359-5111. I'm also in the progress of getting the latest
SLS set from tsx-11. Unfortunately, I'm only running at 2400 baud.
The SupraFaxModem is waiting for a new serial card.

Got the MCC system up and running with virtually no problems, but
have been waging war with the HJL setup all weekend. I think I've
got it going now, but had a couple of scares as my MS-DOS partition
has already been trashed by my inept fingers. Looks pretty good. Wish
I had a VGA card that supported X. Ah, well maybe soon.

I have 386BSD running on two systems and have happily junked my System V
distribution.  It is GREAT!  I have NFS, TCP/IP, SL/IP, and X all running
happily.
