On a related note.

Is there anyway to get the local host info checked first before using
DNS the way sun does it.

At the moment I have to disable DNS to access local machines that are
not in the DNS database on our campus server. With the suns the NIS
database is checked first so it finds my local entries. 

Are the NIS(yp) specs in the public domain. Has anyone thought about
NIS for 386bsd?

Try first configuring the lpt driver, include the files into the

I managed to score a Sysgen SC4000 SCSI-to-QIC-02 controller, an Adaptec
Stand-Alone-Tape-Controller QIC-02-to-QIC-36 board, and an Archive 5945C 
drive.  This bizarre combination is what Sun used to use in their really
old (Sun-2/68010 days) tape backup boxes.

When I connect this mess up to my Adaptec controller and try to bood
386BSD with Julian's SCSI package, the error light on the SC4000 comes
on, and the computer just keeps telling me that command timed out.
The light on the Adaptec just stays on.

Has anyone gotten this or a similar setup to work?  What firware
revisions are in your controllers, and what jumper/switch settings did
you use?

We are trying to install BSD386 on a 16Mhz 386SX clone system, using the
Chips & Technologies Neat-SX chip set.  We are able to bring up the
micro-kernel if we reconfigure the setup parameters of the system to
exclude the hard disk.  So, we do get to the Unix prompt as long as
no hard disks are configured.

The hard disk controller chip is a Western Digital WD 37C65C-PL, and
the VGA chips are Oak Technologies OTI 066adv-66, OTI 037C, and the
VGA roms are dated 1988 and 1991.

We are wondering what to do next, such as buying a new disk controller
since the BSD boot process hangs just after switching to fd0.

Hello,

	I'm helping out our local college who has been given a VAX 5350. It
has VMS on it now and they would like to run unix being a unix shop. Tektronix
may donate a license so there is no problem there (or so we think).

	Here are my questions:

	The VMS os uses a special boot floppy. Do you need another for BSD?

	How about a floppy for ULTRIX?

	Where can I get one?

	Who is using BSD on an 8350 and what do you think we should do?

        Who is using ULTRIX on an 8350 and what do you think.

	Any and all advise is welcome...


Thanks, Ethan

Hello world,

img_1.3.386bsd.tar.Z is a port from the contrib img_1.3.tar.Z to

of useful utilities for X386, eg. setback, giftoimg, dispimg, savewin, etc.

This port is now uploaded to /pub/incoming in agate.berkeley.edu

Hope you find it interesting.

I had not seen this message since before I installed the alpha3 kernel,

	BSD manuals, including kernel configuration, are available (PostScript
only; sorry folks) by anonymous FTP from:

	gatekeeper.dec.com:/.0/bsd-manuals

	I have found the following particularly useful, although heavily
tied to the VAX way of doing things:

	ps1.06.sysman.ps.Z
	smm.01.setup.vax.ps.Z
	smm.02.config.ps.Z
	smm.07.sendmailop.ps.Z
	smm.15.net.ps.Z
	smm.16.sendmail.ps.Z

I suggest "smm.02.config.ps.Z" to start with.

 Befor play on it, Is there anyone make suggestion/explanation like

In my case, I've JUST recompile the kernel which is provided original

Assuming that BSD supports the 8350 (2 CPU system), they'll need a boot
floppy.  All that series did.

>	Where can I get one?

If you get a normal distribution kit, it should include what's
needed to make one.  The ULTRIX installation procedure will
build one for you if you provide the blank floppy.

>        Who is using ULTRIX on an 8350 and what do you think.

I used one as a test system, so I wouldn't have to make my users
endure the potential pain of their main work system run field
test software.  The main system was a VAX 8800 and considerably
faster.  At various times I had 40 MB+ of memory and four CPUs
in the system.  The four CPU version wasn't a supported configuration
and never underwent any heavy load.  It was a reasonable system
though relatively slow.  It depends on what you want to do with it.

The VAX 8350 is a two CPU system, each CPU approximately the same
speed as a 11/780.  It uses the VAXBI as the system and I/O bus.
From what I last recall the largest memory board available was
16 MB and the smallest 2.  The small version of the system had
two six slot VAXBIs.  The larger version had four VAXBIs.  In
either case it's limited to 16 VAXBI options, eight of which
can be supported memory.  The KDB50 is a reasonable disk controller
if you don't need lots of disks.  If you do need lots of disks
then you need a CI adapter (CIBCA-BA is the one to prefer) and
an HSC based disk farm.  The VAXBI tape controller is for the
TU81+; adequte if you can keep it streaming, lousy if you can't.
At various there were as many as three Ethernet adapters
available.  I prefer the DEBNI myself.

It seems to be a very general problem on release 0.1. I've written
(and posted here) a simple lp driver in early 0.0 times. Sorry, for
the moment i don't have this package available here. (My network entry
is far away from my home site:-( ) But if you wanna have it i could ei-

But: i tried this driver under 0.1 and till now, one occasional reboot
already occurred. I don't have an idea what's the reason for this, in
0.0 release this didn't happen. Furthermore, this driver is in its ear-
ly stage, surely incomplete - but it seems to work.

It does not occur in the kernel. This message is from one of the programs
which are started during boot, e.g., in /etc/rc.
This program's name is (didn't you guess it from the error message):
	savecore
I had exactly this problem and solved it by looking at three things:
	1. If you had a line containing
		... root on as0 swap on as0
	   in your config file (e.g. SCSITEST), you should change that
	   to
		... root on sd0 swap on sd0
	2. Look at the "swap386bsd.c" file in your configuration directory
	   This should include something like "sd0".
	
	3. Do a "disklabel -r sd0".
	   If it doesn't show something like
		b: ....   swap ...
	   then this could be another cause of your problem. You have to fix it.
	   I won't recommend writing a new disklabel here, because after my
	   bad experience with disklabel I am very careful using it.
	   Do not misunderstand this statement. The actions "disklabel"
	   did to my harddisk were all caused by me !

Yes. I guess that your system is using swap space. However the "savecore"
program couldn't find the device, that's it.

Hope it did.
I am sorry, I can't be more specific, but I have the system at home
and I am at work, now.

Does an anonymous ftp site exist at which 386BSD users can obtain
binaries for various X applications?  Such a site would be extremely
useful since the library of applications that comes with Xfree is
rather limited.
