                      9: NetBSD/i386 is the port of NetBSD to the IBM PCs and PC clones with i386-family processors. It runs on ISA (AT-bus), EISA, PCI, VL-bus and MCA systems, with or without math coprocessors.
                     10: 
                     11: NetBSD/i386 was the original port of NetBSD, and was initially released as [NetBSD 0.8](http://www.netbsd.org/releases/formal-0.8/) in 1993.
                     12: 
                     13: Frank van der Linden is the current port maintainer of NetBSD/i386.

1.2     ! wiki       17: The minimal configuration for a NetBSD/i386 system requires 4M of RAM and about 40M of disk space.
        !            18: 
        !            19: For a full installation (including source and X11), at least 8M of RAM and 200M of disk space are recommended.
        !            20: 
        !            21: Any i486 or better CPU should work - genuine Intel or a compatible such as Cyrix, AMD, or NexGen.
