I am wondering if someone can point me toward a document or possible help me (if you have the time) with the following problem: I have an NEC UltraLite Versa (way old) 486SL with 12mb ram and little else. I need to use it for minimal purposes (to install a debugger). I have a main FreeBSD box that I have been running for a while -- it has 4.0 (Mar 2000) on it. I managed to get my the PAO 3.5.1 kern.flp and msfroot.flp to boot on my machiune and find all of the devices properly. So, no I go to install FreeBSD from my machine -- yes I know there may be issues between PAO and regualr FreeBSD -- via PLIP and the laptop won't see the connection. I have the correct laplink cable, and I followed two texts (the one in the handbook and another I found on some help site) and it still will not see the connection. Does anyone have experience installing via PLIP or know of a through doc that I can read?
