No way. It already relies heavily on overlays to get things
done. Even without the networking code (which requires I&D,
*and* Supervisor mode), there is pretty much no way to get it
to fit (even a small system) within a 64K space.
If you really need a UNIX that (slowly ;-) fits in the nonID
space, ytu Ultrix-11. That fits, although its very slow on such
machines.
Cheers,
Fred
