> And there's the retro naming of SunOS 4.x to Solaris 1.x. ummm, that was way more than a "retro naming".
SunOS was based on the BSD kernel and the BSD code, modified a long time under Sun. Solaris was based on System V.4, with Sun ripping it apart and basically re-writing it. SunOS was related to Solaris much the same way that Ultrix (BSD based) was related to Digital Unix (OSF/1 ripped apart and re-written by Digital). As a side note we never really released a "V1.0" of Digital's OSF/1 system. We started with V1.2, I believe....we figured no one would use a V1.0 :-) md _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
