Subject: symbolic debugger for 2.9
Under version 2.8, cc has a -g (debug) option that is supposed
to provide additional symbol table information for use by a
symbolic debugger named sdb. We have 2.8 documentation for sdb but
nothing else; in 2.9 all references to sdb and the -g option
have disappeared. I would appreciate hearing from anyone with
experience using sdb, or any other symbolic debugger compatible
with version 2.8 or 2.9. I am also interested in finding out
why all references to sdb have been expunged from 2.9.

Subject: Unix 2.9 dump/restor
I am trying to get 2.9 installed on my 11/70, and have progressed to
the point of worrying about dumps and restors. I see a dump,restor
pair in /usr/src/cmd, and dump source (but no restor) in /usr/src/ucb/dump.
I see a dumprestor.h in /usr/include and in the ucb/dump area as well.
1. Will the non-ucb restor work with the ucb dump?
2. Does the ucb dumprestor.h completely supersede the one in /usr/include?
3. What about the standalone restor? Is that the same as the regular restor?
I remember in my 2.8 system having to massage some constants
until the standalone restor was < 48k... is that required in 2.9?
To summarize: how do I get a unified dump/restor (including standalone)?
I'd appreciate some mail on this. Thanks.

Subject: 2.9 BSD on a PDP-11/24
Has anyone had any luck installing Berkeley 2.9BSD on a PDP-11/24?
(2 RL02 drives) We can boot from tape, make a file system, and install
the root file system, but when we try to boot rl(0,0)rlunix we get a
banner, the memory availible, and a panic trap type 11 (segmentation
violation). Any hints? Please reply personally, I really doubt if this
is a hot issue to most people.
Thanks in advance...
