RE: [pups] 2.11BSD on non separate I&D systems? - TUHS

8 Aug 2002

Hi,

...
  Has anyone done anything to try and get 2.11BSD
working
 on non-separate I&D PDP-11s?

 One of the various READMEs I ran across said it might be possible
 with some creative memory layouts using overlays.

 I briefly searched the PUPS mail archives but turned up
 nothing. No way.  It already relies heavily on overlays to get things
done.  Even without the networking code (which requires I&D,
*and* Supervisor mode), there is pretty much no way to get it
to fit (even a small system) within a 64K space.

If you really need a UNIX that (slowly ;-) fits in the nonID
space, ytu Ultrix-11.  That fits, although its very slow on such 
machines.

Cheers,
	Fred
