Anybody : know how its going? Do you need more help? How about a contact person? The project is going well. We have most of the Section 2 calls working without glitches (no networking yet). We are working on improving the Section 3 calls. Most of the critical utilities such as ls, du, rm, etc. are working just fine. Some of the bigger programs are not up to speed yet. The goal is to be able to build the PCBSD code on OS/2 using the NetBSD tools by January. I.e. we want to be able to take the source tree with PCBSD modifications and compile it with the original NetBSD scripts and commands using the shell. Once that is accomplished, we are going to place the Beta on some FTP site. -- --------------------------------- ------------------------------ -- PCBSD Development Manager -- -- Service Commitment Support -- --------------------------------- ------------------------------
