Questions begging answers:
What is the last bootable and installable media, officially
distributed by Berkeley?
As I understood it, there were no bootable 4.4 BSD lite releases from
Berkley. The 'lite' releases had the AT&T encumbered stuff removed and
not replaced, it wasn't a complete and functional OS.
Is that image currently publicly accessible?
What is the closest version, that is currently available, that would
match the os described in "The Design and Implementation of the 4.4
BSD Operating System"?
If you want something bootable, your closest bet is probably the 1.0
releases of Free[1] or NetBSD[2].
