  Sorry. But at least a couple of those reams are my messages. I was very
polite in my inquiries. But I have never (to this day) received a single
reply. (Yes, our mail system is functioning [I think])

  Well, the reply that somebody posted was helpful. I am still curious as
to what exactly comes with 386BSD (is it assumed to be available yet)? 
Is it the full set of binaries and sources with installation utilities, or
simply sources (with AT&T stuff removed) that must be ported by the user?

  Thanx.
