Can I run XENIX or ISC i386 executables unchanged on ESIX ? For example, if we distrubute ESIX, can a customer buy a XENIX spreadsheet or a ISC word processor and have it run with NO problems ? EMail or post as appropreate. Thanks a lot. -- Dave Lee uunet!dptechno!dave

I also believe that ISC programs will run, too. Be forewarned, though: the ESIX kernal and the other two (Xenix and ISC) are _NOT_ the same beasties, and some stuff may not work if it depends on some specific kernal oddities. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [- O] Rick Stevens ?
