	Thanks to all who responded to my 'bsdinstall' query. The problem
is now fixed.
	I still haven't gotten X11R3 to work though. To resume, I
am trying to get X11R3 working on an HP 9000 Series 350 running 
HPUX 6.2 with a 98720A Renaissance (16 image planes) colour graphics
station. I have successfully compiled and installed the software 
but I cannot get it to run. When I try to run 'xinit' I get the
following message:

  xinit: Connection refused (errno 239): unable to connect to X server

I tried using th HP X11 'X' server instead of the X11R3 'Xhp' server
(linked to 'X') and got partial results. The window manager started
but the fonts didn't load properly. At any rate, this seems to 
indicate that the X11R3 'xinit' is not getting the 'Xhp' server 
to recognize our workstation. 
	What I would like to know is if anyone has successfully
gotten X11R3 running on a similar HP system with any of the colour
stations mentioned in the server/ddx/hp/hp/README file. I have
extracted the relevant information below.
