Thanks, that was what my old and vague memory was recalling.
So the question is when did the RISC series of
processors come into
use, and are these 'unmarked' tapes likely for VAX?
The DECstation 3100 was the first RISC Unix workstation made by DEC. It
came in 1989 to the market. From there
on none of the new MicroVAXen / VAXstations was supported by Ultrix.
What are you considering new? I am looking at the Ultrix 4.x Basic
Installation guide dated 1990 and it lists over a dozen uVAX's, VAXservers,
and VAXstations.
AFAIK Ultrix 3.0 was current at that time.
Sounds about right.
So it would seem OK to say that these tapes I have are for VAX. Looking
at the tapes:
1) Ultirx-32 V2.0 16 USR TK50 1987
My question here would be was this the only tape needed to install
this version?
2) Ultrix-32 V2.2-1 Supp TK50 1988
With this tape marked 'SUPP' I suspect that I only have the one tape
of a multi-tape set.
Well, someone else on the list was asking if I had any versions of Ultrix
for VAX. I guess it looks like a possibility.
Thanks,
Mike
