Berkeley Software Distribution (usually abbreviated to BSD) was the series of UNIX distributions created by the Computer Systems Research Group. The CSRG put together the following releases:
Notable releases
- 2.9BSD - For PDP-11s, a full release from CSRG (prior releases were patches)
- 2.10BSD
- 2.11BSD - A still-maintained version
- 3.0 BSD - A VAX version derived from Unix/32V, including a real virtual memory system
- 4.0 BSD - A vastly improved 3.0
- 4.1 BSD - These were mostly betas testing new file systems & the TCP/IP protocol.
- 4.1a BSD - This included BBN's TCP/IP software
- 4.1b BSD - This version introduced the FFS file system.
- 4.1c BSD - A beta of 4.2, and I think the first version of BSD sockets?
- 4.2 BSD - The first shipping version of BSD with TCP/IP, FFS & termcap for the VAX.
- 4.3 BSD - A version of pre-POSIX BSD, for the VAX.
- 4.4 BSD - Did this version ever ship?
- Net/1 - The TCP/IP source, and other programs free of the AT&T copyrite
- Net/2 - Almost an entire release of all the source. This was the contention in the AT&T vs CSRG lawsuit.
- 4.4 BSD Lite - This was the result of the aformentioned lawsuit. This was 'lite' in that it removed the offending 6 files.
- 4.4 BSD Lite2 - the last release?
