Hi,
[UZIX]
1st of all: Adriano = *BIG* Fudeba :-D
Yes. It ignores MSX-DOS2.
Can it work with harddisks as well?
MegaSCSI users can write the demo disk-image in a extended
partition, select it at A: drive and boot UZIX without problems.
Now UZIX can access any MSX disk-drive, floppy
[UZIX]
For now, there are 50 utils compiled for UZIX. All of them are in
the demo disks available on UZIX page.
Ok, is it much work to compile an average util, like top or so?
*grin* How much work is it to type 'make' ? ;-)

MSX
In my 5x86 100MHz, about 1 minute...
I mean, including adaptions for Hi-Tech C.
So top is not a good example. It was written from scratch.
The time to port a program to UZIX depends of your C knowledge,
the program size and complexity. I can't give you a precise value.

"Better fudeba than nothing!" X-D
Hm, sounds like you're not using the BDOS for disk I/O but writing/reading
directly to/from the disk controller, right?
Right.
What's the reason for that?
New
Manuel,
I mean, not with virtual terminals, but just occupying the other terminal.
E.g. user1 logs in, and starts 2 background jobs. Then, he types somting as
"login user2", and user2 logs in. He can now also start bg jobs. When he
does
top, he sees processes of user1
Manuel,
Oh, I forgot to tell you I found another bug: try
man fld | more
It's not a bug. It's a missing feature.
In UZIX page you can read that sash doesn't has pipe nor
redirection.
["what? manuel didn't read the manual?" :)]
This works on normal Unix
I would like to present you a new operating system for MSX. It's
called UZIX.
What is UZIX?
UZIX is a UNIX implementation for MSX.
UZIX is based on UZI written by Douglas Braun and ported to PC
and MSX by Archi Schekochikhin and me, Adriano C. R. da Cunha.

Whoow! This sounds real cool! I hope you will continue with this

Of course not!

Yes. It ignores MSX-DOS2.
Nice if you want to use harddisk, without having any MSX-DOS!
Can it work with harddisks as well?

What about Novaxis?
I don't know Novaxis. I know MegaSCSI. MegaSCSI can simulate
floppies in extended partitions. That's why UZIX works
Manuel,
Give me detailed information about programming Novaxis, and it
will be supported when MegaSCSI/IDE direct access will be made.
I can send you the manual in WP-format, Gert de Boom sent it to me once.
Nice.
But if it's in dutch, I'll have _much_

It's now
Manuel,
It's now online: http://www.sci.kun.nl/marie/home/manuelbi/soft/scsi.zip, or
get it via my MSX page (http://www.sci.kun.nl/marie/home/manuelbi/msx.html
Thanks.
I know you have top compiled, but I wondered how long it took to get it
compiled!
In my 5x86
get it via my MSX page (http://www.sci.kun.nl/marie/home/manuelbi/msx.html

No problem! (I'll now really go home!)

Cool!
I just downloaded it and tried it on my MSX turbo R. It works! Great to see
that Unix prompt on my TV.
Kind regards,

Anyway. There is no reason for UZIX hanging up because you have
512k RAM or more.
It works fine on my Philips 8245 with 128K and with 512K. Nice
to see some unix on the screen, but it's very slow. Even ls
may take up to one minute before displaying some results!
But it really is a very

Did you try Linux running from floppy? :)
Floppy IS slow.

I wish I could try it from HD...
