jkp@sauna.hut.fi (Jyrki Kuoppala) (02/09/91)
I suppose no one is interested in this now when Mach 3.0 is out ;-), but here goes anyway. To make bootstrapping the GNU tools easier I'll take a backup of the important stuff on my pc532 to nic.funet.fi and make it available for anonymus ftp (or pseudo-anonymoys ftp for the parts covered by Minix copyright so they are only available for those who have Minix). The stuff will be at nic.funet.fi:pub/misc/pc532/jkp-backups. Only the README file is there now but I have the files made and only need to transfer them to nic. Here's the README file: This directory contains some backups from jkp@cs.hut.fi's pc532 system, taken on 8th February 1991. The contents of the tars are: /u/backup: total 10856 drwxrwxrwx 2 jkp user 176 Feb 8 18:58 . drwxrwxrwx 8 jkp system 208 Feb 8 13:54 .. -rw-rw-rw- 1 jkp user 346447 Feb 8 17:35 diff8Feb91.t.Z Dirs /usr/diffs for diffs to various GNU and other free software distributions needed to make to get them compile under my system. Also diffs for my minix kernel against the one in Bruce distribution (/usr/minixdiffs). -rw-rw-rw- 1 jkp user 20784 Feb 8 17:40 doc-8Feb91.t.Z The ChangeLog and some other doc files for my system - can be useful to track down bugs etc. Especially the libraries stuff are quite a mess with different stdio libraries. -rw-rw-rw- 1 jkp user 47208 Feb 8 17:42 etc-8Feb91.t.Z /etc directory -rw-rw-rw- 1 jkp user 3433707 Feb 8 17:38 gnu-8Feb91.t.Z The directory /usr/gnu (bin, lib, man): GNU binaries, including awk 2.11.1, bash 1.05.1, bison ??.??, fileutils 1.4, compress, cpio, diff 1.15, grep & egrep, elvis 1.4, emacs 18.57 (get the lisp files from the emacs distribution), find 2.0, gcc 1.39 with Bruce syntax, same with gas syntax, some GNU binutils, make 3.59, makeinfo, patch, sed 1.06, tar 1.09, texindex. The library files and manual pages for the above. -rw-rw-rw- 1 jkp user 54170 Feb 8 17:22 incl8Feb91.t.Z The /usr/include tree (required for the various Minix kernel patches) -rw-rw-rw- 1 jkp user 284373 Feb 8 13:56 kern8Feb91.t.Z /usr/src/kernel: Kernel sources for the version of Minix I'm using. -rw-rw-rw- 1 jkp user 224667 Feb 8 13:56 lib-8Feb91.t.Z /usr/src/lib: Sources for the libraries I'm using (doesn't contain estdio, get that from the distribution). -rw-rw-rw- 1 jkp user 981449 Feb 8 18:54 locl8Feb91.t.Z /usr/local: Contents of my /usr/local/{bin,lib}. -rw-rw-rw- 1 jkp user 157882 Feb 8 18:58 man-8Feb91.t.Z Contents of my /usr/man. -- The source to the GNU programs are available ie. at prep.ai.mit.edu and nic.funet.fi. Please note that the library as it's in the backup contains some GNU code in it so if you distribute binaries compiled with the library you must respect the GPL restrictions. Finally, these are only my backup files so it might not be very useful to redistribute them to other ftp sites. And the ports probably contain googols of bugs as well, but they've been useful to me. //Jyrki
