From: ang at SU-DSN I've been trying, in the past month, to bring up 2.8 BSD on an LSI-11/23 system. My main difficulty had been 1. We do not have any tape units connected specifically to the LSI 2. We do not have any of the boot devices. Instead we have a Shugart SA-1004 ( 8 Mbyte formatted Wincheter disk ). However, we have gotten quite far regenerating the bulk of the kernel on a VAX using 11-compatibility mode. Basically, we're now stuck with the funny magic numbers ( f2 in ?map, etc.) alluded to in kernel/sys/40SYS. Would appreciate any information from the group, particularly those with similar experiences. Thus far, we have managed to generate a verrion 7 file system on the Shugart drive, and have restored the small root existing the 2.8 tape. Our last hurdle, as I perceive it, is the boot program and a /unix with my disk driver routine incorporated. I looking forward to hearing from anybody (particularly Bob Kridle) - Peng Ang
