These are the FAQ files, reorganized a bit and updated marginally for 2.0.
There is *still more work to be done* in updating, so if some of your FAQ text
is below, please check it over!  We've also got a lot of FAQ entries still
to write (examples: "how do I upgrade?" "what's new in 2.0?" "how do I
install on a notebook/second drive/from DOS/etc etc etc?"

has been working with a Western Digital WD-1007V ESDI controller (on
secondary wdc address), and a Micropolis 1664-7 330 MB ESDI disk -
but this beast was terribly slow, loud (& unreliable) and therefore
had to go
ET-3000 based 512 K VGA, slow (wrt. XFree86), but reliable
3Com 3C503 Ethernet adaptor, suffers from the `do not nfs mount with
too large packets' problem, but works well otherwise
