Hi there,
I've got a Sony Net Work Station NWS series 1800. It is supposed to run
Sony NewsOS which is in fact BSD. The system crashed on my computer,
and all my attempts to get an installation kit of any version of BSD
that will run on my machine failed so far. Now I just have a piece of
hardware with empty HDD.
I am not a complete dummy in the business of installing UNIX
and I have no idea what to do is I manage to get a source without
binaries.
Do you have any idea how I can get an installation kit of any
version of UNIX that will run on Sony NWS 1830/1850, either on
floppies or on tape or just a tar file. Help!!
Thanking in advance,
