Re: V6 RL02 images. Binary or Source?

I'd guess this one has back-ported some v7 stuff onto what was otherwise a 'legacy' system. I think the RL02 drivers were written in Boston for v7 (or am I thinking of the RX02 driver?). Maybe v7.h has something to do with allowing this driver to be used? I don't know, but if anyone else does, please tell! My 11/23 system has a kernel panic if I try to run it on an 11/73 (by swapping out the CPU board). Interesting... ADVENT is missing from my v7.

Sure. Warren's already moved the RL02 image to Boot_images in the PUPS archive, and at some point someone (me? Warren?) might find enough copious free time to strip out the sources. The big problem with this V6 system at the moment is that I can't find the 'mount' executable. I suspect that the system manager might have removed or (more likely) renamed it as a security precaution. (Security? Unix? well, you can try...) I'd like to mount one of the user disks on a second RL drive, but without 'mount' this is hard. Anyone have any ideas?

I have no idea how to find that damned govt list. I think our reference is out of date but who No, it doesnt say that. It says that on our request, you must furnish the list, but we dont demand it up front. In practice, I doubt we will ever ask anyone to furnish this, much less do an on-site visit.

The essential details of the license are: Covers research Editions 1 to 7, and 32V. Covers derived versions of UNIX which ran on PDP-11s. Specifically excludes System V onwards. Full source code, binaries and documentation. Personal, non-commercial use. Exchange of sources and modifications to other licensees. Non-disclosure to unlicensed people. The cost is US$100. Details on how to obtain the license are available at http://minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au/PUPS/getlicense.html SCO will not ship any media with this license. The PDP-11 Unix Preservation Society has a number of volunteers who are prepared to cut CD-ROMs and tapes in order to distribute the PUPS Archive of old Unix software to licensed people. Details about this archive are available at http://minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au/PUPS/pupsfaq.html We would like a few more licensed people to volunteer to create CD-ROMs and tapes, to take the load off the existing volunteers. Finally, none of this would have been possible without the immense support which we received from Dion Johnson within SCO. He battled with the legal eagles over a period of 18 months or so to make the license available. If you can, please send Dion a thank you card at the address The Santa Cruz Operation, Inc. 400 Encinal Street Santa Cruz, CA 95061-1900 United States of America Attention: Dion Johnson This will be a surprise for him, but I'm sure he will appreciate your thanks. In turn, I would like to thank you all for your support. Without the signatures on the petition, none of this would have been possible.
