mame/mess also offers emulation of early x86 computers as well.

though I'm not sure how accurate that emulation is.

Hello Tom,
yeah, i have the same history. First operating system for my 286 was the
Microport ATT SVR2. I have original 5 1/4 media, the tree manuals (mostly
printouts of the original UNIX Man pages beide Intel Assembler and
bootloader) and images from the disks. But, as you remember, Microport V.2
had no networking (beside UUCP)
Still Interested ? Send me a email, I will prepare the images and find a
way to deliver it to you (earliest tomorrow). And if someone know a way to
Boot this images in a hypervirsor, this would help me. The current
hypervisors are not able to emulate MFM disks and hercules graphics AFIK

Hi all,
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask...
I started my home UNIX hobby in the mid-1980's with Microport SVR2 on
Intel 286. With a couple of modems I started a public access UNIX system in
Hampton Roads, VA.
That system graduated to SVR3.0, 3.1, 3.2 on 386, and finally 4.2 with 4
modems running on an AST 4-port card on 486. That was about 1992 when I
started an ISP using SVR4.2. That ISP, also in Hampton Roads, grew quite
large. We were in 100 cities and partnered with newspapers and managed
their content on the brand new web. By then we had graduated to large Alpha
systems and Sun Enterprise.
Now I'm all grown up and and experiencing a 2nd childhood. I run SVR4.2MP
here on a real dual processor Pentium system, but I'd like to get back to
SVR3.2 on period hardware, and later to r2.
My problem is I don't have a copy and don't know where to find one. Do
any of you happen to have a diskette (or disk image) set you can part with?
Ideally I'd like a development system and networking. But I've always been
an optimist :)
I'm happy to pay reasonable fees.
Tom
