_
_tHESE ARE THE NOTES FOR THE uNIX 128 V3.00 SYSTEM...
_
_1.  wHAT IT IS:
_    uNIX 128 IS AN IMPLEMENTATION OF THE uNIX OPERATING SYSTEM FOR THE
_cOMMODORE 128/128d EQUIPPED WITH A 1571 DRIVE AND AN
_80 COLUMN MONITOR.  iT IS BY NO MEANS A COMPLETE IMPLEMENTATION OF
_UNIX: IT CANNOT "BACKGROUND" PROCESSES (AND THEREFORE CONTAINS NO
_PROCESS MANAGEMENT ROUTINES)- THINK ABOUT THE OVERHEAD OF MULTITASKING
_A 6502 PROCESSOR!); ...
_
_2.  hOW TO GET IT:  yOU SHOULD TRANSFER THE PROGRAMS USING BINARY MODE,
_BOTH FROM THIS SITE TO YOUR LOCAL SITE AND FROM YOUR LOCAL SITE TO
_YOUR 128.  tHESE FILES HAVE BE ARCHIVED USING lYNX 128, WHICH CAN BE
_OBTAINED FROM THE MILTON.U.WASHINGTON.EDU (128.95.136.1) FTP SITE,
_AMONG OTHER PLACES.
_    tHE FILES SHOULD BE: UNIX1.LNX, UNIX2.LNX, UNIX3.LNX AND
_00UNIX128-V3.NOTES.  i MAY INCLUDE OTHER ADDITIONS OR PATCHES AS THE
_URGE HITS ME...
_
_3.  hOW TO BUILD THE SYSTEM:  PLACE THE .LNX FILES ON A BLANK DISK,
_AND DE-ARCHIVE THEM.  tO SET UP THE NECESSARY SYSTEM FILES, TYPE
_run "make" FROM basic.  tHEN TYPE run "startup".  tHIS WILL LOAD THE
_uNIX 128 sHELL, ASK YOU FOR YOUR USERNAME AND PASSWORD (THE ONLY
_ACCOUNT THAT IS SET UP IS "ROOT", PASSWORD "ROOT".)  yOU WILL BE
_GIVEN THE % PROMPT, AT WHICH YOU SHOULD TYPE "FSCK", WHICH WILL
_CREATE THE NECESSARY DIRECTORY FILES.  oNCE YOU ARE GIVEN BACK THE %
_PROMPT, THE SYSTEM BUILDING PROCESS IS COMPLETE.
_
_4.  wHERE TO GO FROM HERE:
_    tHE uNIX 128 SYSTEM CLOSELY FOLLOWS uNIX STANDARDS.  yOU CAN GET
_HELP FROM MOST uNIX TEXTS, OR FROM THE FOLLOWING ON-LINE SOURCES:
_
_-"INTRO": THIS IS AN 11 PAGE DOCUMENT DETAILING SOME OF THE MORE IMPORTANT
_PROGRAMS IN THE uNIX 128 PACKAGE.  yOU CAN READ THIS  BY TYPING
_"MORE INTRO".
_
_-MAN: THIS IS THE COMMAND TO SHOW A SECTION OF THE MANUAL.  jUST TYPE
_"MAN COMMAND" (EXAMPLE:  % MAN FSCK) TO SEE THE DESCRIPTION OF A
_SPECIFIC COMMAND.  yOU CAN TYPE "COMMANDS" TO SEE A LIST OF ALL THE
_COMMANDS AVAILABLE.
_
_-BROWSE: THIS IS A MANUAL BROWSER THAT ALLOWS EASY PERUSAL OF THE MANUAL.
_tYPE "BROWSE" TO USE IT.
_
_mY SUGGESTION IS TO READ "INTRO", THEN LEARN THE COMMANDS USING BROWSE.
_
_5.  bUGS:  aLTHOUGH i HAVE TRIED VERY HARD TO MAKE THIS CODE AS BUG FREE
_AS POSSIBLE, THERE WILL BE ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN A PROJECT OF THIS SIZE.
_pLEASE REPORT ANY PROBLEMS YOU FIND!  i CAN'T FIX WHAT i DON'T KNOW
_ABOUT!  (i DO KNOW ABOUT A PROBLEM IN TIP'S vt100 COMPATIBILITY, WHICH
_i HOPE TO FIX IN THE NEAR FUTURE- i DIDN'T WANT TO HOLD UP THE RELEASE
_FOREVER.)
_
_gOOD LUCK!
