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://github.com/tomperrine/unix-v6-pdp11-simh-gcp https://github.com/tomperrine/unix-v7-pdp11-simh-gcp In these kits you will find references to various instructions, source/install tapes, many from TUHS and other places. Should be pretty easy to do a manual install from the directions I reference. --tep On Fri, May 8, 2020 at 6:48 AM Mark Wickens <m...@wickensonline.co.uk> wrote: > Many thanks. > > On Fri, 8 May 2020, 14:38 Clem Cole, <cl...@ccc.com> wrote: > >> Please go to: The Unix Heritage Society <https://www.tuhs.org/> ( >> *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.
