I really wish this had been preserved. MacMach from what I saw meeting = the last of the people involved at CMU in 1993-4 was a lot like A/UX in = having System 6 as a process under Mach with BSD either colocated or = running as a single server. I have a friend who still had one of CMU's distribution CD right up = until a couple years ago, when he trashed a bunch of stuff to move to = another continent. :( If anyone else has one, it'd be news to me. The = closest I have is an image of the bootstrap floppy; you normally got = MacMach on campus by booting from a floppy that would start up a minimal = Mach+BSD+shell; you would boot it, configure TCP/IP, partition your = disk, and then SUP the rest of the distribution. -- Chris
