Does anyone out there in netland know where I can get the GNU stuff (including g++) for an Apollo M68020/30 workstation? I look after a network of these, viz: a DN4000 running BSD UNIX (apollo version 10), and three DN3500`s running Aegis-pretending-to-be-BSD (apollo version 9.7). Our plan is to move to version 10 and run proper BSD on all of them soon. I see from existing news postings that there is a version for a 386 Apollo, supporting COFF format, but this puts me only a little closer. Ideally, I would like the necessary headers etc to compile up gcc, g++ etc under version 10 to produce M68020 and M68030 code in COFF (or even working binaries?) . Version 9.7 stuff would do to get started though. I have not tracked down an Apollo GNU implementation in the UK, and anyway, version 10 and proper UNIX support is all a bit new here for this to have happened, so I suspect that I am depending upon you nice people in the USA. I don`t think that Apollo UK have GNU, for instance, although someone there is intending to put it up (but busy just now). I will happily act as a feeder for other UK Apollo sites, if I am the first, of course. Can anybody help? Simon Ritchie warwick!covpoly!simon

There is not, as far as I know, any such animal; I asked somebody at Apollo and he said there's no Apollo machine running a 386. (How about a Vectra? :-) :-) :-) :-))
