I've got a kernel booting in multi-user mode, programs running, and 
life is happy.  (This is on a IIci with 20 megs of RAM, but may be 
bounced around from computer to computer sometimes.)  Right now, it's 
running on an 80 meg drive, which has forced me to limit my swap space 
drastically (it's at 16 megs right now), but I'm buying a 212mb which I 
plan to use for it in the future.  
	I'm new to unix configuration, and I'm having some trouble getting 
the networking up and running.  If anyone has some time to spare to help 
step me through it, I'd greatly appreciate it.
	Is it possible to run DT to offer different terminals for logging 
in?  It seems like when I run it it simple spawns off several other 
processes under my account, when what I would really like is to see each 
screen with a "login:" prompt.  Is it possible?
	Also, the Meta-FAQ mentions that Pine has been ported.  Where can I 
get a copy of this?  If for no other reason, Pine includes Pico, a text 
editor much better than the VI I've been using.  
	Congrats to the crew!  I've been following the progress, off and on, 
since the summer of '93 ('94?  I can't remember) and it's progressed from 
about half a shell to a fully working OS.  I'm looking forward to the 
PowerPC port...  =)  (I know you don't have any plans for it, but I 
suspect you'll get to it someday.)
	My own personal computer is a 7200/90, and although I'm only an 
amateur programmer, I think I understand enough to grasp some of the 
problems in the port to that machine.  On the other hand, it seems like 
the Alice group might fare better skipping the original NuBus PowerMacs 
in favor of the PCI-bus ones when you do decide to make the switch.  PCI 
is well-documented, and FreeBSD already supports it, which might make 
things easier.  As far as getting it running in emulation, would it be 
possible to hook into the Mac ROMS like you did with the ADB problem?
