Subject: Updates, a note about VSTa
Date: Sun, 27 Feb 1994 15:50:14 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <19940227205014.V9TFoEzNOdyRz_SjH8BWWvChY-vH2_fjvDmdo_BxdyA@z> (raw)
After asking around, we are probably going to order a local clone with
ET4000 based VESA localbus cards, big hard drives (ide) and lotsa RAM.
The war stories are here (experiences with installing plan 9 on intel
hardware, if there is sufficient interest, I will post to the mailing list.)
If you have plan 9 running on a PC and are not Bernd, Forsyth or Capell,
please email me with a short story about your experience. I am
collecting all this stuff and will probably put it up for anon ftp, along
with nofileserver.ps etc.
BTW: is there an archive of this mailing list somewhere?
Here is an operating system that is trying to incorporate ideas from both
QNX (a very nice microkernel OS) and Plan 9. The name is VSTa and more
information is available under ftp.cisco.com:/vandys/vsta/vsta_intro.ps
The leading / before vandys is very important. Cisco have a very weird,
supposedly secure ftp set up and unless you know the paths, you'll
probably not make it.
