[COFF] Esix SVR4

[William Corcoran]

Hi Emanuel,  

I believe I may have the install disks for ESIX, SVR4.  It actually was distributed in this beautiful box with over 100 5.25” floppy disks.  

As things progressed, ESIX was distributed on a streaming tape cartridge.  That was so much faster than swapping floppy disks for the install. 

The nice thing about the ESIX SVR4 was the documentation.  It was essentially the AT&T SVR4 books with a white ESIX cover slapped on it.  

If you want to copy the disks and make them accessible to our UNIX community, let me know. Since it’s part of my collection I would ask that you return them to me.  Send me an email directly if you’re interested and I will see if I can locate them for you.
