I don't remember any special many-programs-in-one binary
like busybox in any Unix from the days when Unix was simple
enough for me to understand. That covers the entire lifetime
of the Research systems, but also System V and the BSDs and
their sundry offspring up into at least the 1990s.
I'm pretty sure OpenBSD at least still has nothing like
busybox. The nearest thing was to make sure certain programs
were linked statically (or existed in alternate statically-
linked versions) so they would work before shared libraries
were available. (It seems to be common wisdom that `sbin'
means `system bin' these days, but I remember once, long ago,
being told it stood for `static bin'.)
Perhaps the question to ask is why such a magic program is
needed at all. Is it just because programs like the shell
have become so large and unwieldy that they won't fit in
a small environment suitable for loading into an initramfs?
Older UNIXes, even on the VAX, didn't use an initramfs.
the boot code had just enough understanding of devices and
file systems to load the kernel and to point it at the
real root file system. The VAX hardware designers had
a clever scheme on many (but, strangely, not all) VAX
variants by which the hardware had several little boot
ROMs, each containing a bare-bones read-only device
driver for a particular device along with a few
instructions to read the first sector into memory
and start it, with pointers to the boot-rom driver
and device ID in specified registers. That was enough
to support a device-independent Unix boot block that
could read unix (or another file name typed on the
console) from the root of the file system at the start
of the disk. I know it was because I wrote such a
boot block, though I don't know whether anyone else
did. (Other systems, I think, just used it to load
/boot, a larger and more-capable program.)
Maybe it was just that the boot environment was simpler
in older systems, without the need to load kernel modules
or support multiple locations and means of access for
the root?

Hello folks, I'm here today with a question that sprung off of some 3B20 research.
When 1984 happened and ATTIS rose from the ashes of former Bell System computing efforts, presumably ATTIS received all IP rights from Western Electric for 3B processors, WE32000, and so on, and continued to sell related products through to the 3B2 line. Is this the case, is ATTIS the formal recipient of both computing software *and* hardware IPs after the breakup?
Given that, plus subsequent market flow, "old AT&T" scooped up and paraded around in effigy by SBC, other old Bell stuff cannibalized by other RBOCs, spinoffs of stuff to Novell, then Caldera/SCO on the other side...who all wound up with the hardware IPs? The story as it "concludes" concerning UNIX is of course tied up in all the subsequent lawsuits, what with Novell and Caldera conflicts on ownership, transfer to the Open Group, so on and so forth, and SCO and progeny wind up with the Sys V "trunk."
Is there a clear, current owner of these WECo hardware IPs, or have those waters grown even murkier than those of UNIX in the times after AT&T proper?
Thanks everyone!
- Matt G.
P.S. As an aside (even though it's the more directly UNIX thing...) is anything after SVR4 developments that would've involved the same folks as were working up to that point in the USL group? Or did the transfer of System V to Novell also involve their own in house folks starting to take it over, then over to SCO, is there anything post SVR4 (4.2, 5, UnixWare stuff) that would even remotely be considered the logical next step by the same folks that engineered SVR4, or was it basically just another face in the crowd of "UNIX <xyz>" when USL wasn't involved anymore? Probably not the first time this has been asked either so to a finer point I'm basically fishing for whether anything post the initial SVR4 releases in the early 90s is generally considered "pure" in any way or if the Bell streams pretty much terminate with Research V10 and SVR4, (and IX) at the turn of the 90s.
Hoi,
I just discovered that one of my favorite computer books about my
best liked programming language (besides C) releases in a second
edition. Does anyone know what the differences of 1st and 2nd
edition are?
As the original book is almost perfect, the only rework and
extension direction I can think of is towards different
implementations like gawk, mawk, portability and such things.
Does anyone know more about it? Maybe some inside information? ;-)

Recently, I was looking into the “Das U-Boot” boot loader package. Summarised with great simplification, u-boot bundles device drivers, file systems, commands and a Bourne-like shell into a standalone package. Normally it auto-runs a script that brings up a system, but when used in interactive mode it allows a great deal of poking around.
It made me think of the “standalone” set of programs for installing early Unix. On 16-bit understandably each basic command has to be a separate standalone program, but after the shift to 32-bit bundling more functionality in a single binary would have become possible.
How did the Unix “standalone” package evolve in the 80’s, both in the research and BSD lineages? Is there any retrospective paper about that? Or is it a case of “Use the source, Luke”?
I’ve been playing around trying to link the OpenSolaris launch commit to various pieces in the Unix History Repository, and it’s making me wonder if we’ll ever have a chance to see the history of the systems.
I’m less concerned about HPUX, AIX and SCO’s offerings since I presume someone has copy inside these companies. But what about A/UX, Irix, Tru64? Did these ever get sold with licenses to source tapes? Are there copies we need to preserve in-camera so something can exist 120 years after creation or whenever copyright expires?

Hi All,
Is this the only bootable 3bsd distribution tape we have?
http://sourceforge.net/projects/bsd42/files/Install%20tapes/3%20BSD/3bsd.ta…
I don't like the idea that sourceforge is the only source, the
provenance is unclear and I'm just not a big fan of how sourceforge
handles downloads generally.
I've found tarballs, but not tapes on TUHS.
Thanks,
Will
Hello All.
Nelson Beebe has added PDF files for all the .ps files that didn't
have them, and I did a little bit more cleaning up of the CSTRs
I made available late last week. The new file is at
https://www.skeeve.com/combined-cstr-2.tar.gz
Warren will eventually add them to the archive, at which point I will
probably take down my copies.
Nelson and I request of the CSTR authors who are on the TUHS list if
they are willing to make source code for their CSTRs available? That
would certainly help in the preservation effort.
Thanks,
Arnold
Yesterday, Arnold Robbins kindly posted to this list a link to a
bundle of Bell Labs Computing Science Technical Reports that he had,
luckily for us, and for Unix, IX, and Plan 9 history, preserved in his
personal library.
There are 67 distinct report numbers in the bundle, and 79 different
files.
Today, I completed a merger of data from all of those reports into the
BibTeX entries in the extensive bibliography at
https://www.math.utah.edu/pub/tex/bib/unix.bibhttps://www.math.utah.edu/pub/tex/bib/unix.html
Arnold's bundle has mostly PostScript files, but some also have PDF
companions. I expect to make PDF versions available for all of them
in the TUHS archives, but for now, the new BibTeX entries do not yet
have suitable URLs for their retrieval. URLs will be retrofitted once
the files are widely available in TUHS mirrors.
Some of the reports had already been recorded in unix.bib; those that
had not carry a value "Fri Aug 25" in the bibdate string, making them
easy to find with a text editor, or with an SQL search in the
companion SQLite3 database at
https://www.math.utah.edu/pub/tex/bib/unix.db
For example,
% sqlite3 unix.db
sqlite> .mode table
sqlite> select label, title from bibtab
where bibtimestamp like '2023.08.25%'
order by number;
For TUHS member convenience, here is a summary from unix.bib of the
thus-far-recorded Bell Labs report numbers, their year (several are
undated, and thus assigned 19xx), their page counts, and their titles,
ordered by increasing report numbers, with column widths chosen to
limit lines to 80 characters:
sqlite> .mode table
sqlite> .width -4 4 -8 51
sqlite> select number, year, pages, title from bibtab
where (filename = 'unix.bib')
and (type = 'Computing Science Technical Report')
order by 0 + number;
