(Or "jolix /joh'liks/) A free softwareport originally derived from the generally available partsof the "Berkeley Net Release/2" to the Intel i386architecture by William Jolitz and friends. The name Jolix isused to differentiate it from BSDI's port based on the samesource tape, which is called BSD/386.Many new and innovative features were added to 386BSDfollowing its original release in June 1992. An unofficialpatchkit, available from many anonymous FTP archives,solves many of the problems associated with 386BSD Version0.1. In addition, many common Unix packages have been ported.386BSD has been superseded by FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD.FAQ(http://cis.ohio-state.edu/hypertext/faq/usenet/386bsd-faq/part1/faq.html).
