But you know, that you can get NetBSD as binary distribution like Debian?
I was runnin NetBSD before starting with Debian in 1999-04 and as you
know, "Don't touch a runing system!" -- Mean, my 386dx33 (16MB or ram)
is running as DCF-77 (it is an ISA card) receiver plus "ntpd" for my
local network since over 9 years now and was never hacked....
Thanks, Greetings and nice Day
