You can find build kits to run various UNIX flavors in GCP in my github repositories. I was working in a 4.2BSD build kit but didn't finish it., IIRC https://github.com/tomperrine/unix-42bsd-vax-simh-gcp There's also 4.0 BSD, V6 and V7 https://github.com/tomperrine/unix-40bsd-vax-simh-gcp https:

The callsign N1BE is not listed as a "silent key" in any archive I can find and QRZ shows an email of that callsign @ arrl.net. The last update to the QRZ page for that person was 2015, but that could just mean that they haven't updated their profile there. The FCC license was renewed in 2016...

Please go to: The Unix Heritage Society (*a.k.a.* TUHS) and look in the Unix Archives. All of the sources you are interested in are there, some was raw tapes, other as distribution kits. It is organized by the organization that released the distribution. You will find most

I'm getting an error - undeclared type off64_t when I try and compile the vax780 emulator from a clone of the git repository made today. If I edit sim_fio.c and change off64_t to __off64_t I then get implicit declaration warnings for fopen64, fseeko64 and ftello64 and the Hardware Core Test EVKAA

32v is widely available. It was first runnable thanks to Naousing SIMH 3.7-1 http://zazie.tom-yam.or.jp/starunix/ 32v serves as the base of 3BSD, which of course gave us 4BSD and beyond. > -- > From: m...@wickensonline.co.uk > Sent: Friday, May 8, 2020 8:26 AM > To: 's

[Simh] Earlyish UNIX for the VAX

2020-05-08 Thread mark
I've been doing a little research on versions of UNIX for the VAX architecture. In the SIMH Software Kits archive there is 4.3-Quasijarus BSD for the VAX. I also noted the Bell Labs paper here: https://www.bell-labs.com/usr/dmr/www/otherports/32v.pdf which I think refers to UNIX 32V https://en
