Excerpts from netnews.comp.sys.ibm.pc.rt: 13-Sep-92 Info on BSD unix on RT The brave Tauther@acca.n (546) > Hello. I have heard that there exists a version of BSD 4.2 or 4.3 for > the ibm RT. My source even claimed that ibm was distrubting it as > "unsupported" (back when the rt was 'the' machine). Has anyone heard of > this? Does anyone know where it might be located? Is it free? Thanks > for any help/pointers you can provide. It is true. It is called AOS (academic operating system). IBM only distrubted it to Universities. But, it is owned by IBM. That is, it would be illegal to give you a copy of it. IBM doesn't support or distribute it anymore, but I sure run it on my machine (since I'm affiliated with CMU, it's ok). -Bob
