Are any of the Xinu sources available via ftp.

Xinu is not available by ftp, but is available for a fee. Macintosh Xinu version 6 (for volume I of the book--includes no networking) is available commercially via mailorder from Prentice Hall. Send your order, along with $80 to Book Distribution Center PRENTICE HALL Route 59 at Brook Hill Drive West Nyack, New York 10995 or call the mail order department at (201) 767-5937. You can also order version 6 or version 7 from us at Purdue. The software includes Aztec C source code and makefiles for the Xinu system calls, C library routines, and utilities, including a configuration program. The Aztec C compiler is available from Manx. Xinu version 6 (without networking) costs $100, and version 7 (internetworking) costs $200, payable to Steven Munson, if you order it from us. If you want to order it from us, send electronic mail to xinu-librarian@purdue.edu, or physical mail to Xinu Librarian Dept. of Computer Sciences Purdue University West Lafayette IN 47907 If you want version 7, you should specify the medium you want the file server recorded on. It is on the floppy disk as part of Macintosh Xinu now, but there is also a UNIX version on 9-track tape and a SunOS version on tape cartridge. ----------
