Hi,

I'm a 'newcomer' to the world of RiscBSD and would really like to install 
it on my RPC, purely for Unix familiarisation.  Is RiscBSD suitable for 
this?

My computer is an issue one RPC600 with SA-110m 48Mb + 2Mb VRAM, 16bit 
sound upgrade, 406Mb HD and, on a RapIDE i/f, a Quantum 3.8Gb HD and 8x 
CD-ROM.  Is this hardware suitable?

Is there an imminent release of a CD-ROM available?

Now this is probably going to be a really stupid question, but just how do 
you partition a HD with !HForm?  (I can't see any partitioning options).

Just as an aside, has anyone managed to set the ATAFS filing system as the 
boot filing system?  I've tried *configure atafs to no avail.

Thanks for you patience, and any help :-)

Regards,



Paul Irvine.
