I have a nice collection of older Macs at home and would like to try
MacBSD.
1) What's the best way to get everything I need?
2) How much RAM, hard drive space will it require?
3) Given the following, which will be the easiest to set up:
- SE/30
- IIcx w/Apple video card (Toby?)
- IIsi
- LC
- LC II
All have 8+ MB of memory. I plan on putting BSD on an external drive. All
but SE/30 have Dayna ethernet cards. (SE/30 should arrive next week, so I
don't know which ethernet card it has.)
4) What's a good starter project?
Eventual goals: setting up a domain name server at work that lets us
retire MacDNS, setting up a web server at home to replace NetPresenz on
my Quadra 650.
