[net.micro] XENIX on the PC

jim@sivax.UUCP (Jim Bauman) (02/20/86)

I have an AT with XENIX installed. I want to put it on
my XT as well. It won't work. Is there a way that
I can do this without having to spend $$$$$ for
a complete PC XENIX system???

IBM XENIX for the AT runs only on a 286.  Same for SCO XENIX for the AT
(although SCO also sells a version of XENIX which runs on the 8088-based XT.)
I can see the flames already--what you're asking is software piracy,
unless you remove the copy of XENIX from your AT beforehand.
