I have made first versions of bnr2ss and the net2 utilities and
libraries for the pc532 available for anonymous ftp. The directory
nic.funet.fi:/pub/mach/pc532-src contains the following files
README
XBSDSS1.tar.Z bnr2ss 	version one for the pc532 (based on BSDSS4).
BSD1.tar.Z net2 	version one for the pc532.
pc532.MK78.tar.Z 	Mach 3.0 for the pc532. A new version will be
			made soon. Improvements to drivers have been
			made sincew the current release.

In addition you need to get the rest of the net2 tape. It is available
in nic.funet.fi:/pub/OS/4.3bsd/net2 and probably in many places in the
US and so on.

I give no promises whether or not anything works, in fact I haven't
tried it myself after the latest changes. After I last time tried it I
have removed all files containing code with unknown origin and all
contaminated code. I'm not sure the replacements work. I have cross
compiled them on a decstation running Mach using gcc 2.3.1. This
doesn't mean it would be easy to get them compiled.

I will try to make a more mature distribution as well as a binary
distribution available sometimes. To make this faster, please send
fixes and improvements to mach-532@cs.hut.fi.

PS. The libm.a derived from 4.3BSD Reno has been removed. It is now
part of BSD1.tar.Z
