[comp.unix.xenix] 4.x BSD for 286/386 machines?

bbsadm@dasys1.UUCP (Big Electric Cat Admin) (01/18/87)

Does anyone know whether 4.2 or 4.3 BSD Unix has been, is being, or
will be, ported to 80386 based machines? The 80386 is a powerful
processor, and the machines which incorporate them seem to be fast
enough and have enough memory to be very capable BSD machines.
Anyone know of a company doing this porting?

  In a previous article, someone was curious as to the development of
a 4.3 BSD port to `286/386 machines.  Seems to me that late last year
somebody claiming to have been one of the original developers of the
BSD "series" posted a query on unix-wizards asking if anyone had heard
of his own impending port of 4.3 BSD to the IBM AT.

  Does anyone remember that?  Or is it just me? :-)
