I would like to run a 386 UNIX on an EISA platform. Are my choices limited as to which UNIX I must use? Does the bus simply not matter in this case? I believe that SCO supports the EISA bus, but what about ISC, ESIX, etc. Thanks for any help. David Buonomo ...!uunet!fltk!dnb

Does the bus simply not matter in this case? I have not had any problems running with the Vectra, Dell, or homebrew. I have installed Xenix, ODT, ISC (old version, 2.0.2??), and two versions of V.4 beta. One V.4 wouldn't install correctly on anything, so that's not an issue, all other versions worked very well on the EISA models. All were using WD compatible controllers, 1003, 1006, 1007 in various cases. -- bill davidsen - davidsen@sixhub.uucp (uunet!crdgw1!sixhub!davidsen) sysop *IX BBS and Public Access UNIX moderator of comp.binaries.ibm.pc and 80386 mailing list "Stupidity, like virtue, is its own reward" -me
