A friend of mine would like to know if there is a version of UNIX available for a VAX 730 other than Ultrix? He does not need a source licence, just the standard distribution of OS and related tools and utilities. The configuration of the machine is as follows: VAX 730 w/ 3 Mb memory RMO 3 equivalents with 1 controller 2 @ 67 Mb, 1 @ 130 Mb Is there a BSD or SYS V version which would work on this architecture? If so which release would be appropriate? Also, where can one obtain it? Thanks in advance for any help you could offer. -- Gary Blumenstein, UNIX Systems Administrator // CIBA-GEIGY CORPORATION ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Voice: (914) 347-4700 7 Skyline Drive, Hawthorne, NY 10552 U.S.A.
