More mildewy items from my dödsstäda project. Finally found my
March 1974 BTL directory. A while ago I was trying to figure
out who the people with the initials EPR, LIS, and MAS were in
the 516-TSS documents. Best guesses via vgrep on an ancient
single-processor are that EPR is Peter E. Rosenfeld, supervisor
of Computer Graphics Design Group, LIS is Loretta I. Stukas in
Programming Aids Software And Techniques Group. No reasonable
looking matches on MAS.
Nothing else spectacular in this box - it does have my Lyons
books and a whole bunch or original UNIX docs such as the C
manual, introduction to ed, and so on which I think are all
sufficiently preserved that I don't need to scan them in.

What's the current status of net/2?
I ask because I have a FreeBSD 1.1.5.1 CVS repo that I'd like to make
available. Some of the files in it are encumbered, though, and the
University of California has communicated that fact. But what does that
actually mean now that V7 has been released and that's what the files were
based on? Are they no longer encumbered?

The number of people who come here asking for help, who apparently don't know
how to do a Web search, is pretty astounding. Get off my lawn.

Actually, I didn't write that; another CHWiki contributor imported it from
the Web. (Wouldn't touch SIMH myself... :-)
Most of the other pages at the bottom, in the 'See also' section, I did
write. Some of them might actually be useful. Also, at the bottom of the
'Installing UNIX Sixth Edition on Ersatz-11' page, there are links to a
couple of external pages that have lots of info on how to upgrade a V6
into something semi-usable.

Hello there I’m Resun a teenaged programmer who knows nothing about past days.
Here Index of /Archive/Distributions/Research/Dennis_v6 (tuhs.org)<https://www.tuhs.org/Archive/Distributions/Research/Dennis_v6/> there are some compressed file of v6 Unix.
And here’s SETTING UP UNIX - Sixth Edition (tuhs.org)<https://www.tuhs.org/Archive/Distributions/Research/Documentation/v6_setup.…> a documentation about how to set it up.
But the documentation is not for me I mean I don’t understand what it’s saying. There are terms like “Mount magtape on drive 0 at load point”, “Mount formatted disk pack on drive 0.”, “Key in and execute at 100000” and lots of other stuffs that newbies like me don’t understand. Is there any easy documentation about it? Or any documentation that tells us what does those terms mean?
Please help me.
Thanks.

This video got passed around at my (new!) job, and I think it's very
relevant to this list. It's Bill Joy talking about what he and Sun were
thinking about as the future of workstations and computing in general ca
1987. Some of the predictions were not accurate, but some were.
I'm curious what others think. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8Pd6xYaHGU

hello there I'm Resun, a teenaged programmer and I love C and UNIX.
I want to use the 5th edition UNIX operating system. From here Index of /Archive/Distributions/Research/Dennis_v5 (tuhs.org)<https://www.tuhs.org/Archive/Distributions/Research/Dennis_v5/> I've got a compressed file of the 5th edition UNIX. I want to use it using the SimH emulator but there's no guide about how to install it or use it. I'm using SimH in Windows 10.
Can someone please help me to use this system?
Thanks.
I never saw his 32V work, but I reimplemented his additive random number generator in my own work.
Not too many people can write a 35 page PhD thesis.
Fewer can do it for Knuth.
