As another sideline in my vintage computing, I've
been wanting to get
a Xenix 2.3.4 system set up. No good reason, just because I think it
would be fun. I used it briefly early in my career so I have a soft
spot for it despite it's massive amounts of cruft and breakage. O_o I
currently have the base OS & Developer Kit set up in emulation. My
goal, unlikely though it is, is to get as complete a Xenix system as
possible up and running on an old 386 or 486 class laptop.
However, the various unbundled bits are rare as which ever proverb you
care to use.
The unbundled kits I'm still looking for are these:
386 Developer kit 2.3.1 (I have 2.3.0d)
CGI 1.1.0
Text Processing 2.3.0 (nroff & friends)
Manual Pages 2.3.0
VP/ix 1.2.0 vpix (run MS-DOS apps slowly.)
TCP/IP Runtime 1.2.0 tcprt (it'd be fun to run Lynx!) (Depends on Streams)
TCP/IP Development 1.0.1 tcpdev
Streams Runtime 1.0.0 streamsrt
Streams Toolkit 1.0.0 streamstk
Of course apps like Word, Multiplan, FoxPro & etc would be wonderful
if unlikely as well.
My budget is somewhere between slim and none.
Can anyone assist or point me in the right direction?
Thanks!
William

I dont have your needs but do have something related and
older
or what you are asking for had differing names then
I have Intel Xenix 286 R3.4 V1.1 currently on the original floppies
including the extended system
This is circa 1986
and the installation text (not scanned)
I just started cataloguing it
http://www.collection.archivist.info/searchv13.php?searchstr=xenix
will finish it later.....(for some definition of later)
