[TUHS] 211BSD Version in the Unix Archive

[Will Senn]

Hi All,

I'm currently doing some work with 211BSD and the best version that I've 
come across for my investigations is the one put together by Andre 
Luvisi, based on the distro in the Unix Archive at 
https://tuhs.v6shell.org/UnixArchiveMirror/Distributions/UCB/2.11BSD

So far as I can figure out (and I'm a little bit fuzzy around the 
edges), this appears to be patch level 431, at least according to 
https://tuhs.v6shell.org/UnixArchiveMirror/Distributions/UCB/2.11BSD/VERSION. 
I have a number of questions that hopefully, someone can shed some light on:

1. Is it really pl 431?
2. How can I tell?
3. Is it the latest tape image available (I've seen plenty of disk 
images, but those are already installed)?
4. Is there a howto bring it up to the next patch level document lying 
around somewhere?

I've seen Warner's work on going the other direction and that's 
fascinating in it's own right, but I'd like to see about patching up to 
latest.

Thanks,

Will
