I'm considering buying Coherent 4.0, and I'd like to ask the net if anyone
is running Waffle under this OS?

And besides Waffle, are there any other BBS packages available for Coherent?

Thanks,

Hi all,
I've ported the lastest release (3.04) of the user interface utree to
Coherent 4.0. Now without memory limitations and a good System V
compatibility of 4.0 it wasn't much work, and it just runs fine.
For those of you, who don't know utree, it's a program like xtree for DOS.
Maybe that this program will help former DOS users to feel at home under
Coherent. However, I think it's really a good and usefull program,
worth to take a look at it. Tomorrow I'll send it to MWC.

I have gotten hold of a Wyse 60 terminal as salvage(as is!).
I've connected it to com1 on my system...set it up for polled access
because my modem is on com3. The instruction for ttys setup seem clear;
but even when I try to manually enable the terminal, it won't work.
The screen comes on--but all it reacts to is the caps lock and numlock
keys. To add to the confusion, I'm not even sure the terminal is working!
Any hints or similar experience will help.

The only difference is that 4.0.1 has a modified installation to handle

Some time ago there were some mentions of a port of gcc to Coherent 4.0 in
this group.  I seem to remember several postings asking about the port (how
difficult, what configuration settings, code changes needed, etc...), but
I never saw responses posted.  I've been butting my head against the config-
uration options of gcc-2.1 for a couple of days now, and finally got the thing
to compile up to the point where a call is made to the macro obstack_init()
in genattr.c.  That macro is defined in genattr.h, and the compiler returns an
error something like "illegal use of type void in cast" when it gets to that
macro call.  Has anyone else encountered this difficulty, or is it an artifact
of my lack of understanding of how to configure the gcc package for Coherent?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks,

Keywords: coherent 4.0 async irq
Date: 16 Aug 92 17:35:24 GMT
Distribution: world
Summary: Can 4.0's asy driver support non-standard irq's ?

I ordered my 4.0 upgrade in May, and just received it on Friday. Havn't
gotten a chance to load it yet, but will be installing it soon (unfortunatly,
as a fresh install ... as per a prior posting, after installing OS/2 on my
PC, Coherent 3.2 got trashed (well, actually I trashed it :-) by killing the
non-root partition, causing Coherent to fsck ... error ... reboot ... fsck ...
error ... reboot ...)).

Anyway, going through the Installation guide, it appears that the async
setup is now completely configurable. I have four com ports, with com3: at
irq 2 (not 4) and com4: at irq 5 (not 3). It appears that I can now run ALL
of my com ports in interrupt mode by specifying the alternate irq's in
/etc/default/async. Can anyone confirm if this is the case, and whether or
not this will work ?

Please respond via email (...jpradley!colornet!dfilip) since my news feed
has been somewhat flakey over the last couple of weeks.

Also, I had posted a 'Help !' to this news group about 10 days ago regarding
problems I was having keeping OS/2, DOS, and Coherent all on the same system.
If anyone had answered me, I did not get it, and I would appreciate it if
you could re-send a summary via email.

ATdhvaannkcse,

Dave.

The easyest way to make a backup is just using DOS. If you can't do or
want to do that, install Coherent to your hard disk first, and then make
the backups using dd:

dd if=/dev/fha0 of=disk.dd bs=30b count=80 (read the disk)
dd if=disk.dd of=/dev/fha0 bs=30b count=80 (write to formatted disk)
If your Coherent comes on 3.5" use /dev/fva0 and bs=36b.

You can't create a bootable floppy, if your root filesystem is on the
disk in the bootable drive :-)

No, the -b option is to write a bootstrap loader into the first sector
of a disk. Without that the disk can't be booted.

Agreed -- it would have been more accurate for me to write "no restricted
environment is completely safe".  However, the point remains the same.
Don't depend on just the tools (or just your users) to make your system

Subject: Copying files to floppy disks
Date: 22 Aug 92 04:41:07 GMT
Reply-To: "Coherent operating system" <COHERENT@indycms.bitnet>

What could I possibly be doing wrong when copying files to floppies?
For example, I downloaded screen.tar.Z, nn.tar.Z, and several other files
from mwcbbs today while at work. I noticed that screen.tar.Z was about
500K and nn.tar.Z was about 570K after concatenating all of the pieces
together. Yet after I get home, I find that screen.tar.Z is 400K and
nn.tar.Z is 440K on the floppy and the files are definitely incomplete.
Here's how I did the batch today at work:

	cat screen.tar.Za? >screen.tar.Z
	fdformat /dev/fqa0
	mkfs /dev/fqa0 1440
	mount /dev/fqa0 /f0
	cp screen.tar.Z /f0
	umount /dev/fqa0

It appears that perhaps the cache isn't being flushed immediately when
the drive is unmounted. When I run fsck /dev/fqa0, I get the message
"Possible File Size Error i-number = 3" where i-number 3 is the i-node
of the file in question. At any rate, the basic jist of the message is
that I now have a stack of floppies containing useless files and I was
really hoping to get nn up and running this weekend. I assume I must be
missing a step somewhere because all of the files I've checked thus far
are defective. And yes I am waiting for the drive light to go out
completely before removing the disk, which does take a while on the larger
files.

Well, I think it is time that us "loyalists" start exercising our
money back guarantee until such time as the product is stable.  I
think, after seeing all the recent traffic here, that I will cancel
my order and wait for a more stable update or just migrate to OS/2
for my "traditional unix tasks."

While I'm waiting for MWC to get back from lunch I'll ask my questions here.

I can dial out just fine from my Coherent box (A Dell 200 running 3.2) but
dialing in is another problem entirely. As soon as I get a CD the TR
drops on my modem and the modem hangs up. I've set the modem according to
the file modeminit (AT E0 V0 Q1 S0=1) so I don't think it's a modem problem,
I'm thinking more along the lines of the getty being the problem. One thing
the tech guy mentioned when I called earlier is that /dev/com* should be
owned by bin in the bin group and permed 666. Well, as soon as I change this
and then enable the port it goes back to being owned/grouped root and 
permed crwx------. Help!

Is it really necessary to have the 0lLcom2l entry, or is this a Coherent 4.0
thing, I haven't found it necessary on my current system. I'm running
Coherent 3.2.1a (and waiting patiently for 4.0) with 2 modems (on com1pr and
com2fr) and one terminal (on com3l) and it runs fine.

No restricted shell is safe ... so either you trust your users to respect a
locked door and go no further, or you depend upon their ignorance to not
even know the door is locked in the first place.

It's a problem with AMI, not COHERENT.  But, no, the problem persists in
v4.0.  I.e. they haven't found a work-around especially for AMI.

I'm using a 486/33 with AMI.  Blah.

The only difference--AMI wise--is that COHERENT v4.0 does a cold reboot
when you use ctrl-alt-del.
