I have two very fuzzy recollections that may help... The first is that
when I first got hooked on cygwin (beta 1x, 3<=x<=5 ??) my main machine
would have been a 386Dx w/387 co-proc so unless I learned to love cygwin
somewhere else (not likely because while I used a LOT of other machines
back then, it was rare to use the same one more than once, and even rarer
for me to be able to install software on anything.) The second is that
a friend in uni was screaming about not being able to get it to work in
the "pc emulator" software he used on his mac. I still have the 386dx
mobo and memory, and ide card if you need a testbed to actually try this
on.... yours for the price of shipping & handling ;)
