It's a net/2 something much later. I'm interested in what would have been an
encumbered pre net/2 release of 4.2 or 4.3 for the i386... I found out that CMU had BSD
running on Mach, and I suspect there is straight ports as well. It's that
evelotionary dead end of 386 UNIX from 1986-1991 that interests me as they clearly could
have had the market but they obviously blew it.

True, but It’s not 4.3 BSD … I was hoping for
something vintage of
the
era, just as Solaris 11 is SYSV, but it’s nothing
like SYSVr2 on the
VAX….
And historical is far more interesting than something I can just go
buy
retail…. Speaking as someone who’s own a NeXT,
and even bought OS X
Server 1.0 on release.
Isn't Jolix essentially Reno, if a 4.3BSD is what you're after?
