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

Hi folks,
Forgive me in case this question has been asked before..
Has anyone done anything to try and get 2.11BSD working
on non-separate I&D PDP-11s?
One of the various READMEs I ran across said it might be possible
with some creative memory layouts using overlays.
I briefly searched the PUPS mail archives but turned up
nothing.
Thanks,
