386BSD 0.0 ... is bare. It is not what you would expect, being spoiled in multiuser systems!
As they state:
At the moment, 386BSD comes up single user, and re-
quires manual starting of the system daemons, as well as
filesystem checks. In use, one would minimally wish to type
after booting:
fsck -p
mount -a
update
/etc/netstart
This will improve in forthcoming versions of 386BSD.
Be aware that the user is running as the super-user, and
care should be taken given the maximum privileges present.
that is right, no login, you are just running as root!!!!

Well there isn't even a 'ps' command! Gcc is version 1.39! A 'full' install, binaries and source is 43mb! this is a super bare bones port!
- Ethernet seems to be only WD 8003 cards, and NE2000 ...
building a kernel easily causes it to trap!..
danger ahead!
building a kernel
the first thing you'll have to deal with is missing commands..
- sort
- grep
- test / [
getting this to run
right now the fastest option is Qemu. 0.11.1 is the highest version to work, as the 'SEABios' has issues with the boot loader.
