Not quite right. There is one SVR4.0/MP product, sold under different
product codes for packaging and licencing reasons (some with EISA Config
Util and boot floppy, some without). However, the same O/S release
covers the U6000/15/35/60/65 as the supported platforms.
You need to order the correct one to get the correct miscellaneous
media, documentation and licencing for your target system. The U6000/60
version will include ammendments to the H/W installation guides for
SVR4.0/MP too. BE SURE TO ORDER THE CORRECT PRODUCT CODE.

All O/S-es for these systems are built from the same source at the
same time for release, so there are not two "versions". Some low level
code is conditionally compiled for the U6000/60 architecture and H/W
specific drivers, but it all comes from the same source. So don't worry
about miss-matched rev levels and versions between platforms.

The older 80386DX systems are NOT supported, ie U6000/30/31/50/51/55.
