Currently I don't have anything useful on the old board, such as a net card,
but I'm planning to use it as a router, and I should be able to do VPN stuff.
So I've left gif and tunnel and ppp. When I do have a NIC, I will enable some
NIC support.
I've never used a printer/parallel port or a serial port, but google images
revealed that I have them, so I've left them there.
I gather pty is for su's. Why do i need md?
Well, if a standard 6.2 installation doesn't use 4.x or 5.x binaries by
default, like 3.4 binaries, then I will remove it.
Removed PS/2 mouse. Included MSDOS for mounting floppies.
What about apic?
VPN over 56k maybe? You're going to be very unhappy trying to use a
486 for a VPN at anything approximating a sane data-rate, even more
so if you are short of RAM and dug into swap under normal operation.
Oh I don't care, I'm happy with my hardware router. Fucks up only ~every month.
Experience with old hardware & FreeBSD...
Minimal kernel + VPN prog needs more RAM than 8MB?
