Sorry to dilute the Unix/Windows/Mac flamewar with a
vaguely on-topic posting, but does anyone have, or
know of a site where I can get images of the SunOS4.0.2
install floppies (NOT tape) for the Sun 386i? I've got
the original disks but they were used to hold "something
else" long ago - now I'd like to restore them to their
former glory :-)
There used to be a set of images on an FTP site in one
of the London universities, but they've gone :(
Any pointers? Haven't found anything by googling, and
I've been looking for a week or so now. This is my last
resort, since I'm fully expecting to be flamed to a crisp
for showing interest in a Unix variant :-)
Cheers
Al.

I've been tinkering with IRIX myself here lately, though the
version is too new to be applicable to this list. BTW, anyone know
of a good reference for the ins and outs of IRIX?

Images !

.. ohh wrong kind
well close, the fellow that made those pics is Eric Benoit
drop a note to eric(a)ecks.org and see if he might
still have the OS for the machine in all those pictures

From the Sun386i User's Guide
Page 143, 1st
paragraph:
"SunOS is based upon a UNIX operating system, and as such it allows
broad freedom in selecting names for files. For example, a UNIX
operating system file name can be up to 255 characters long. DOS
file-name conventions, on the other hand, are somewhat more
restrictive."
heheheh too funny, in the year the 386i was current, "somewhat
more restrictive." was a rather kindly a way to put that.
