Is there any ftp site where X386 is organized as above? Everywhere I
looked (uunet, export.lcs), it seems that only older (version 1.0?)
binaries are available. I have seen a similar questions posted in
this news group a few days ago. Can someone with X386 experience post
a definite roadmap on how to install X386?
Questions I would like to see answered:
. Which distribution files are needed?
. Are the "fonts", "man", "inc" and "lib" "bin" files unchanged since
version 1.0?
. Are the server binaries available or you have to rebuild from the
source for each OS (Esix ISC etc)?
. Who should use which version of the server (1.1 1.1a 1.1b)?
From a posting by Thomas Roell, I understand that 1.1b is still beta.
Is that why the binaries are not available?
