Well? :-) Seriously, we have a site liscense, and don't care at all about any of IBM's "enhancements" to UNIX. We want BSD, quick and dirty, and we'd really like to have Mach as well. We have an 8CE (8 RT's in parallel in a box) that runs BSD/Mach on the host RT as well as all of the nodes, so it *has* been done, just not on the RS/6000... Email, I'll summarize if there's interest. -- J. Eric Townsend University of Houston Dept. of Mathematics jet@karazm.math.uh.edu Skate UNIX(tm).

As was discussed on comp.os.mach, there is a port of Mach to the RS/6000 being done jointly by IBM and CMU's ITC. Organizations seriously interested in getting access to this port should contact John Howard, Director of the ITC. His mail address is John.Howard@andrew.cmu.edu Information on Mach distributions for the VAX, Sun 3, IBM RT and i386 can be received by contacting: mach@cs.cmu.edu
