Santangelo) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd,comp.sys.dec Subject: ?wuarchive 4.3bsd-reno code for VAX Date: 10 Aug 1993 22:02:23 GMT Organization: University of Maryland, Chesapeake Biological Laboratory Lines: 16 Message-ID: <2495tfINNrul@cbl.umd.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: starburst.umd.edu Summary: Can this code easily build a working 4.3bsd system on a MicroVAX? Keywords: 4.3bsd,VAX,wuarchive While skipping around wuarchive I decided to take some twists and turns I hadn't made before and noticed the complete source tree for 4.3bsd-reno. Now, I cd'd deep inside and noted the support for the VAX architecture (KA630, KA650, KA820, and KA860). Does the VAX code still work? Can I build a working 4.3bsd-reno system for my MicroVAX II or III (a II is being upgraded with a KA650 shortly)? If so, how do I go about pulling off this big source tree and building it? Can it be done under ULTRIX 4.3? Thanks for any help, advice. -- -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Mike F.
