Not a autoboot parameter, but mkboot takes an `-x' argument that prints tons of debug info... # cd /boot # mkboot -x -k KERNEL Steve --- Steve Friedl V-Systems, Inc. +1 714 545 6442 3B2-kind-of-guy friedl@vsi.com {backbones}!vsi.com!friedl attmail!vsi!friedl ---------Nancy Reagan on cutting the grass: "Just say mow"--------- :wq! ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 30 Nov 88 20:54:32 cst From: ucsfmis!ide!uunet!cs.utexas.edu!mybest6!paddock (pri=-20 Steve Paddock) Subject: Re: TCP/SLIP > From: cogsci!wimsey.bc.ca!attvcr!mdivax1!fraser (Cameron Fraser) > To: well!lamc!info-3b2@ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU > Subject: TCP/SLIP > > Would someone please give me a reference re obtaining SLIP for 3B2?

Sadler) Subject: TCP/SLIP Unfortunately, the TCP/IP package that AT&T sells for the 3b2 does not support SLIP (at least in the incarnations I have seen). There are a few other ways to get SLIP up and running on the 3b though. First, there are other venders that have TCP/IP on the 3b2. The one that I have had the most experience with is Lachman Associates. Their TCP/IP for the 3b2 does support SLIP. Unfortu- nately, they only sell their code to OEMs, and then as a source development package. The number to reach Lachman is 1-800-LAI-UNIX. Another route to go is to take the KA9Q software (recently re-written to support multi-user OS's much better) and use it. Basically, there is a daemon that han- dles the SLIP line, and each application (FTP, TELNET, etc.) has been migrated into a seperate process. (The older versions had all programs rolled into one BIG program.) This new version is still being worked on, but a PRE-ALPHA ver- sion is avail. Please contact me by e-mail for more info on this.
