[comp.os.xinu] 68000 XINU??

dji@sbcs.sunysb.edu (David J Iannucci) (02/16/88)

I know this was asked a couple months ago, but there has been no apparent
response.  So I'll try again.

Where can one find the 68000 port of XINU that's mentioned in the preface to
the Comer text??  Does anyone know if this guy Derrick Burns has an e-mail
address??  Any info is much appreciated.

Since I'm not sure which preface you're speaking of (there are
now 3 Comer books), I'll just say that there is a version of Xinu
available for the Sun-3 (68020).  Both version 6 (the system described
in Vol. I) and version 7 (the system in Vol. II) are available.

To get more information, you should send e-mail to 

xinu-librarian@arthur.cs.purdue.edu 	(internet)

Or, via snail mail,

Hope this helps in some way!

mulching:  a process of inbred fertilization which employs certain decomposed 
organic materials--including but not limited to animal sediment--to blanket 
an area in which vegetation is desired.  The procedure enriches the soil for 
stimulated plant development while, at the same time, preventing erosion and 
decreasing the evaporation of moisture from the ground.

Dave,

   We stopped sending that out now that the SUN and Mac versions are sunning
because (1) they are superior, and (2) the old SUN I board that we used for
the original 68000 version is obsolete.  I suggest you choose from Mac or
SUN.

Cheers,
Doug
