This is a little off-topic, but is there an ftp site where I can still download a boot floppy and an ISO CD image of FreeBSD 2.2.8? I've just found a perfectly good 386 (DX-40, 4Mb RAM, 105Mb HDD) -- someone just threw it away and left it standing next to my office. I want to install FreeBSD on this poor little thing, and think that 2.2.8 would be much more suitable for it than 3.4 or 4.0, because older a.out binaries are smaller than ELF ones, as are the various kernel components, which had greatly increased in size over the years. Let's just say I was very surprised when I couldn't find 2.2.8 anymore - I think I did a similar ftp install on a 486 less than a year ago.
