Close it, was the Series/1 port not the Interdata.
It was reported at the 1980 USENIX by the folks from Cleveland State that
ported it. The Series/1 was not byte-swapped.

What was that story about porting an early UNIX

different char polarity? I dimly recall only a few problems.
The NUXI problem on the Interdata 7/32, when the University of Wollongong
did the port of Sixth Edition.
I can't find a link to the actual story, but from memory the system
printed "NUXI" out when it was first booted.
