4.0 BSD improves upon the 3 BSD release with curses, better job control, csh, and "reliable signals"..
How do I get this to run?!
Right now, make sure you have the VAX-11/780 emulator from SIMH 3.8-0 or higher, then go to http://zazie.tom-yam.or.jp/starunix/ for more information.
Currently if you enable the dz ttys you'll get a bunch of 'ZERO VECTOR UBA RESET: dz up 'errors... So this isn't very usfull if you were hoping for some kind of multi user system. The only 'good' thing is the 32v idle in simh-3.8-0 works well on this version.
What Runs?
Not very much.... 4 BSD does not provide any modern networking, and the C compiler is far from ANSI. Also keep in mind that 4 BSD does *NOT* include any TCP/IP networking... It's worth noting that the zork binary made it's appearence in this version of BSD Unix..
