... or the proceedings that it's in.

The paper is by Chris Torek entitled "A New Framework for Device Support in
Berkeley Unix" from Proceedings of the UKUUG, London, Summer 1990.

The Google hits I'm getting in the proceedings suggest I'd like a copy of
the full thing.

Closest I've found is from 2005 or 2006 on archive.org... Nothing in the
TUHS archives I was able to find....

This paper is referenced in Chris Torek's "Device Configuration in 4.4BSD"
which only ever seemed to circulate in draft form. That I have a pdf of
which I converted from a ps that was on NetBSD.org...

Any chance I can get a copy of it? Or will I need to figure out
inter-library loan again for the first time in almost 2 decades...

Warner
