32v is the first 32bit version of Unix created by Bell Labs. 32v is basically a 32bit version of Unix v7. It's also worth noting that CSRG used 32v as the basis for their work on 32 bit BSD unix, starting with BSD 3.0 which was a 32v kernel with demand paged virtual memory, the BSD 2.x utilities rolled into one. Neither 32v nor BSD 3.0 include TCP/IP.
The AT&T vs BSDi/CSRG Lawsuit
Because 32v is the basis for BSD 3.0 it was also the source of contention of the lawsuit. The whole issue has been made moot since Caldera bought the rights to UNIX, and released 32v into the public domain.
How do I get this to run?!
Right now, go to http://zazie.tom-yam.or.jp/starunix/ for more information.
What Runs?
Not very much.... 32v does not provide any modern networking, and the C compiler is far from ANSI.
