This Archive contains files and programs suitable for installing SunOS 4.1.1 for sun3/sun3x architectures. It is derived from the Sun3x install tapes and Sun3 "live" installs. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Legal Stuff -- READ THIS! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This archive is for people who own a Sun3/Sun3x machine and wish to get it running. We have had no explicit permission from Sun to publish this material, having contacted Sun on the issue and had no reply in several months. We see of no reason why owners of old Sun machines cannot obtain a copy of install media, especially with Sun no longer supporting these machines and telling customers to "get a copy elsewhere". I (Stuart Croy) accept personal responsibility for the contents herein. If you feel that maintaining this archive is unacceptable, please do not hesitate to contact me. Note that the distribution is not in the original format that Sun provided and thus is not representative of the product that Sun shipped. (The changes are slight however) The files and programs in this archive are to be used at your own risk. I will not be held responsible for damange to data or equipment incurred by use of the above mentioned programs/files. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OK... Scripts will be appearing soon to put together a Sun3/Sun3x boot tape or 'fake CD' install via disk or network. ` I'm rather busy right now (just moved flat) and the other oldkit archive maintainers are off on holiday, so things will be slooooow for a while. Stuart 14/7/97 It has been pointed out that sun3_openwindows_demos.tar.gz and sun3_openwindows.user.tar.gz are corrupted. These file will be replaced soon, when my 3/80 at home is back up. Stuart 16/8/97 As it happens I was just carrying a SunOs 4.1.1 tape about with me :) and so the "sun3_openwindows_demos.tar.gz" and "sun3_openwindows.users.tar.gz" have been restored. Lucien 20/8/97 I put this tape-images to www.sun3arc.org as a pure mirror of what's on the original site. I don't know what the legal status is but I'm sad of so many people asking me for boot-images and I always have to say "sorry...Sun still holds the copyright so I can't put it up". Now I'm not the first one to do this and my trials to get a statement from sun also failed because no one I asked could tell me who's responsible. So if I violate something please tell me and I'll take this stuff away. Heiko 25/11/97 On wednesday, May 20th 1998 I got an answer to the legal status of puting SunOS online from the sales-representive of SUN Microsystems Germany (section Research&Education) and he allowed us to put the Bootimages online as long as we don' use them in a commercial manner. Looks like if this problem is solved...he allowed us even more but that takes some more time... Heiko 23/05/98
