![]() Now we can run this quick thing I threw together to get each of the branches.Ĭvs -d:pserver: :/doom log -h | grep -P ‘^\t’ | awk ‘’ | sort|uniq| sed -e ‘s/://g’Īnd now this will tell us there is the following branches: Ok, that’s great, but how about something that has all kinds of source overlaid in varous branches, like my doom repository? First login, and then check out the default repository:Ĭvs -d:pserver: :/doom loginĬvs -d:pserver: :/doom checkout doom Of if you wanted the Emacs that was in Research Unix v9:Ĭvs -d:pserver: :/research checkout researchv9/cmd/emacs Which in this case I tried to keep it somewhat sane with each found distro with some initials when there was more than one… As always its easier to look through the web interface (for me) and then decide which one to checkout.Ĭvs -d:pserver: :/research checkout researchv6 Say you are interested in Research Unix v6, you logon to the CVS server:Ĭvs -d:pserver: :/research loginĪnd in the case of research & CSRG there is multiple modules (directories) and it’s probably best to list them to see which one you want. The cvs-web VM doesn’t seem to care, but the logon process for anonymous sure does.Īnyways the following archives are online: So yeah HOURS of fun. Even though the database is only a few gigabytes, it took a while to rebuild everything as ‘cvs pserver’ package for Debian runs in a chroot of /var/lib/cvsd which doesn’t play nice when your archives are all created in /var/lib/cvs. Posted in Macintosh, OS X, powerpc | 5 Replies My crappy CVS archive of old crap is now online via pserver! Its a fun machine from the era of the introduction of personal 64bit RISC computing to the home user, although too bad the full industry didn’t catch up until later, just as 32bit desktop computing had a few stumbles out of the gates. That makes this the only machine I have capable of running MacOS 9, although in emulation under OS X 10.2. I have the Jaguar DVD set, but Classic mode was removed in 10.5. It was the ending of the PowerPC era, just as 10.6 was the last version to ship with Rosetta. Needless to say, he wasn’t too pleased that his copy of Snow Leopard didn’t work on the machine, and he dumped the G5 for a much quieter MacBook.Īt any rate, it also included an Apple Studio Display. I found another Cinema Display in the used hardware market for $25, which even though the display works the screen was damaged at some point and shows scratches on the surface when the display is a solid colour.Īt any rate, the machine was deadly slow to boot, I upgraded the RAM from 256MB to 1.2GB, and replaced the ancient disk for a SAMSUNG SSD PM830 2.5 256GB flash drive. Now it’ll boot up in under 30 seconds from the graphics initialization. In my last trip to the United States, I scored yet another PowerMac G5, a model 7,2 which is one that is capable of running OS X 10.2.7 for the G5. It was the proverbial dream come true, used by an elderly man to keep track of photos in iPhoto, which he used maybe a handful of times a year. ![]() So this way I can get get the install kicked off. Although I should probably have just downloaded serial telnet:127.0.0.1:4444,server,wait -boot d -cdrom -hda Deiban8HPPA.vmdk I found on Windows though that the Debian 8 CD’s work the best, as the earlier ones lock up after loading a kernel, and the later one doesn’t fully initialize. I’ve been using this one:  Serial console interaction is the way to go, so I ran Qemu like this: SeaBIOS: Unimplemented PDC_CACHE function 1 8ddad0 1 1 1 ![]() Type any other character to stop NEXTSTEP from starting up automaticallyĪnd amazingly the bootloader works, although that is about it. Type ? and press Return to learn about advanced startup options ![]() Type -v and press Return to start up NEXTSTEP with diagnostic messages NEXTSTEP will start up in 10 seconds, or you can: lsi 00:00.0 0:0 Drive QEMU QEMU HARDDISK 2.5+īooting from lsi 00:00.0 0:0 Drive QEMU QEMU HARDDISK 2.5+īoot IO Dependent Code (IODC) revision 153 Processor Speed State Coprocessor State Cache Sizeġ. I’ve worked on machines with HP-UX, but never owned one. Well Qemu now has system emulation thanks to Richard Henderson! You can find information over at:īeing the unfair person I am, I thought I’d try NeXTSTEP to see how far it gets.
