Subject: [TUHS] shutdown for pre-v7 unix
Date: Wed, 16 Jul 2014 14:55:41 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CADxT5N5aUTFQ3-XYPDsW3tX6qYwQs6eT89XctquK05mdo10LxA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hi folks,
I've been typing sync;sync at the shell prompt then hitting ctrl-e to
get out of simh to shutdown v5 and v6 unix.
So far this has worked fairly well but I was wondering if there might
be a better way to do a shutdown on early unix.
There's a piece of code for Unix v7 that I came across for doing a shutdown:
http://www.maxhost.org/other/shutdown.c
I doesn't work on pre-v7 unix, but maybe it could be modified to work?
Mark
