 Logging into a 2.9BSD system | |
| Type: | Multitasking, multiuser |
|---|---|
| Creator: | CSRG |
| Architecture: | PDP-11, theoretically portable |
| This Version: | 2.9 (1983) |
| Date Released: | 1983 |
Unlike prior versions, 2.9 BSD is a full Unix distribution, not relying on a prior v6 or v7 system. The kernel uses complicated series of overlays this version of BSD should be an indirect port of 4.1 BSD.
How do I get this to run?!
Installation is quite slow on SIMH but there is a guide, Installing 2.9 BSD on SIMH. I'll have install tapes, and a pre-made image later.
