Requirements

You will need the following materials to put together a 4.3 BSD+NFS Wisconsin Unix installation:

  • A working perl interpeter to make the tape images.
  • A copy of gzip.
  • A method of extracting the boot file from either the binaries (tar/gzip) or uudecode to extract it from here.
  • A compiled binary of vax780 from SIMH, along with the vmb.exe again from SIMH.


You will need the following files from any 4 BSD archive from the 4.3BSD directory. I have used the files from mirror.cc.vt.edu. You can use whatever method you like to download them, wget, a web browser etc..

stand.gz miniroot.gz
rootdump.gz
usr.tar.gz


src.tar.gz
srcsys.tar.gz
stand.gz
vfont.tar.gz
