Hi Emanuel,
I believe I may have the install disks for ESIX, SVR4. It actually was distributed in this beautiful box with over 100 5.25” floppy disks.
As things progressed, ESIX was distributed on a streaming tape cartridge. That was so much faster than swapping floppy disks for the install.
The nice thing about the ESIX SVR4 was the documentation. It was essentially the AT&T SVR4 books with a white ESIX cover slapped on it.
If you want to copy the disks and make them accessible to our UNIX community, let me know. Since it’s part of my collection I would ask that you return them to me. Send me an email directly if you’re interested and I will see if I can locate them for you.
