- I remember reading somewhere that there is a minimum system binary
- distribution, that has the minimum c source, etc for building or patching a new
- kernel.
-
- My problem is that I have an 85MB hard disk. I would like to get this to
- experiment with UNIX.
-
- I have looked on many systems and cannot find these component files.
-
- Also, how does one create a whatis.db for apropos using the standard BIN
- distribution?
-
- Please respond to private e-mail address. Either one listed below will be
- fine.
