I am looking for an INGRES that will run on a Plexus P/60 System III. Plexus and RTI do not have an OEM agreement. My sales person at RTI says one does not seem to be forth coming. I would prefer not having to port my 4.2BSD VAX INGRES if someone has already done the work. Any hints on porting problems from VAX to 68000 processors would also be appreciated just in case I have to do the port. Responses will be summarized to the net. Thanks in advance.

I am in the process of attempting to port the university ingres from VAX/UNIX 4.2 to a Masscomp 68000. So far (2 days) I've just been running into makefile and C incompatibilities. I suspect that the portions of ingres written in assembly will be a major stumbling block as will byte ordering. I would be very interested in any information you receive. Thanks. Mary
