2.9BSD & Pro: another version

Ken Wellsch has just uploaded a set of RX50 disk images containing 2.9BSD for the Pro 350 to the PUPS Archive. You can find them in Distributions/ucb/2.9bsd4pro350-kcwellsc He says: I believe the RX50 is actually 80 tracks with 10 sectors per track, thus yielding 800 blocks per disk. I think the first track is reserved and thus Venix would not let me at it. Hopefully I have not also lost additional information here too. All the 34 disk images he sent in are 790 blocks long. Can anybody tell us if we will need to recover track 0 to make these images useful? At the very least, I've managed to find the pcreg.h file out of the images (cat */*.rx50 | less -B), so I'm getting closer at recompiling the 2.9/Pro kernel.

I have a question that I hope someone can help me with: I'm thinking about getting myself a SCO Source license, but I'm worried that I might get "tainted" by this since my day job involves writing operating systems... My employer would not appreciate getting sued because of my hobbies...:-) Has anyone done research about this aspect of the license? My goals are twofold, running an older Unix version on my PDP-11's, and of course I want to peruse the source of the classic versions. /^JN - Jesper Nilsson -- I've heard of UNIseX, but I've never had it.
