Message-ID: <5158@elsie.UUCP> Date: Wed, 10-Jul-85 09:34:40 EDT Article-I.D.: elsie.5158 Posted: Wed Jul 10 09:34:40 1985 Date-Received: Fri, 12-Jul-85 04:02:23 EDT Organization: NIH-LEC, Bethesda, MD Lines: 21 Xref: watmath net.wanted:6710 net.unix-wizards:13780 Colleagues at the Michigan Cancer Institute recently acquired a VAX 11/750 with: * a TU81 tape drive * an RA60 disk drive * an Eikonix optical scanner (only known driver is a 4.1bsd driver) * a Comtal Vision One/20 display (4.1bsd and 4.2bsd drivers available) They're interested in getting things running as soon as possible. If you have: * information on the availability of 4.1bsd, 4.2bsd, and System V drivers for the above hardware; * information on the availability of magnetic tapes that can be used to bring up 4.1bsd, 4.2bsd, and System V on the above hardware; * or opinions on whether its best to go with 4.1bsd, 4.2bsd, or System V I'd appreciate hearing from you. -- UUCP: ..decvax!seismo!elsie!ado ARPA: elsie!ado@seismo.ARPA DEC, VAX and Elsie are Digital Equipment and Borden trademarks
