This is a SysVR4 emulator derived from work done as part of the NetBSD
|
||
|
Project by Christos Zoulas. It has been ported to FreeBSD by Mark Newton.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To use it:
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Add "pseudo-device streams" to your kernel config file and rebuild,
|
||
|
reboot.
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. Build and install the svr4 module in /sys/modules/svr4
|
||
|
|
||
|
3. Type "svr4" to start it up.
|
||
|
|
||
|
4. Grab compat_sol26.tar.gz or compat_svr4.tar.gz from
|
||
|
http://www.freebsd.org/~newton/freebsd-svr4 and install them in
|
||
|
/compat/svr4
|
||
|
|
||
|
5. Run "sh SVR4_MAKEDEV all" in /compat/svr4/dev
|
||
|
|
||
|
6. Mount a Solaris/x86 CD-ROM on /cdrom
|
||
|
|
||
|
7. Brand any executables you want to run
|
||
|
|
||
|
8. See if they work.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It's early days yet, folks -- You'll probably have trouble getting 100%
|
||
|
functionality out of most things (specifically, poll() on a socket doesn't
|
||
|
look like it works at the moment, so Netscape doesn't work (among other
|
||
|
things)). Patches will be appreciated (use send-pr).
