Glen/B File: ADM/Info 386BSD Patch Collection Release A Organized by Glen Overby $Id: Info,v 1.1 1992/04/19 02:20:22 overby Exp overby $ WARNING: To expedite this release, I have NOT compiled and tested it. This is release A of my 386BSD ("Jolix") patch collection. I am releasing it to the net in an attempt to provide an organized base of changes to William Jolitz's 386BSD Release 0.0. This collection is mantained under the control of CVS. My source tree started with the BSD Net2 release, then incorporated 386BSD and finally all the changes people have posted to comp.unix.bsd and comp.bugs.4bsd. Where To Get It I have placed a tar file containing all the files that were touched since 386BSD 0.0new on plains.nodak.edu [134.129.111.64] in pub/386BSD/patch-a.tar. The postings themselves are in the 'News' directory (see the Index file for a cross-reference between Message-IDs and sequence numbers). A diff set is not currently available. If you do not have Interenet access, sending mail to the program archive-server@plains might be of use to you (if it works). Start out by asking for help. Special Files ADM/Log A manually maintained list of what postings were incor- porated to create this release, including what files each posting touched. ADM/Rlog The output of RCS's "rlog" command detailing the mas- ter CVS database (,v) files. Soapbox I intend to continue releasing patch kits on a weekly basis, un- til flamed to a crisp. I regularly save all code changes I see, but being human (and on a flakey system) I might miss something. If you do not see your contribution in the next release after posting it, please contact me at the above address. Do Not expect me to do hand-holding (e.g. help you compile it on your BSD box). Things To Do - I forgot to add RCS $Id: Info,v 1.1 1992/04/19 02:20:22 overby Exp overby $ lines to the files I touched. - I haven't taken the time to dump this onto a machine running 386BSD to see if it compiles. - Decide if it is better to store the news postings in numbered files or by Message-ID. - #include :-) File: ADM/Log Log of changes to 386BSD $Id: Log,v 1.2 1992/04/19 02:11:24 overby Exp overby $ CVSROOT=~/_src mkdir $CVSROOT/{src,bin,etc,lib,share,usr.bin,usr.sbin} # BSD-NET2 sources cd ${repository} checkin ${repository} -m "Net2 from wuarchive" BSD NET2 # 386BSD sources checkin ${repository} -m "Jolitz's 386BSD" BSD i386BSD checkout ${repository} ~From: pace@blitz.com (Pace Willisson) ~Subject: Re: 386BSD announcement (I offer the patch kit) Message-ID: ~Date: 14 Mar 92 13:29:22 GMT Organization: Blitz Product Development Corporation File: sys/i386/i386/locore.s Path: plains!ogicse!uwm.edu!cs.utexas.edu!swrinde!gatech!bloom-beacon!bloom-picayune.mit.edu!athena.mit.edu!eichin ~From: eichin@athena.mit.edu (Mark W.
