Some things I noticed while installing the SNAP release: /dev entries don't seem to work first time around; I needed to do a MAKEDEV to get cuaa1 working. This is a problem because you don't have MAKEDEV until you get the bin distribution, which makes attaining the bin files over a slip connection very difficult. XFree86-3.1s installation suggests /dev/mouse or /dev/tty00 as appropriate mouse devices. Seems reasonable but stock MAKEDEV won't build either device. aside from that things are getting easier. I really like having the source distribution broken into several file sets. Does wonders for us slip/ppp folk with limited network bandwidth. Thanks for all you efforts. -Steve Galle steveg@wavefront.wti.com
