I am going to making a mail server, if you want I can let some of you guys in but i need payment for hosting, but i am geting somthing together

The //e doesn't have an MMU. There are just soft switches, addresses in the $C03x range you hit to switch banks of RAM. Works the same as the Language Card on the Apple][. Click…

Anyone heard of LUnix? Unix on a C64 - page seems a bit old though. And uCLinux ideas might be helpful about getting around lack of MMU. EDIT: Doh...didn't remember that LUnix ha…

At a minimum, the pinouts have to be remapped. The first 20 pins of the Disk II & Disk III seem to be identical in function, suggesting that the 6 remaining Disk III pins a…

I am pretty sure that the Disk ][ connects to a set of pins on the back of the ///.The blue port all the way on the left is where it would go. Click to expand... Um, nope. That…

I waited before I replied in case I was wrong, but I am pretty sure that the Disk ][ connects to a set of pins on the back of the ///. See this pic: http://www.digibarn.com/collec…

There is a little bit of info on the Disk III and its use on a III+ here: http://www.vintagemacworld.com/drives.html but as for the Disk II, vintage photos show Apple employees w…

No, it was 16bit but could address 256Mb of memory with 18 address lines. A 6502 has 16 address lines but that doesn't make it a 16bit computer. If you went by that argument an 808…

The PDP-7 was an 18-bit machine. Has a "real Unix" ever been developed for any 8- or 16-bit machine? Doesn't seem a big stretch to run in 16 bits. Click to expand... The orig…

isnt the GS 16 bit? Click to expand... The WDC 65816 (also: 65C816), a 16-bit microprocessor CPU developed by the Western Design Center (WDC), is an expanded and compatible suc…

yeah, but you can also write 8-bit code because the 65c816 also knows about the 65c02.

Ah, but that would be the easy route, plus there's already GNO/ME. Click to expand... Bah, that's like MachTen or Mac06 on the Mac. Doesn't count! Targetting the GS first…

csa2p Click to expand... Took me a bit to figure out what that meant. Sounds to me like targetting the IIgs, because it has the most resources, including a built-in source…

Just as update: this discussion is being continued on csa2p. There have been 9 replies since yesterday.

Comparing a PDP-7 to a 6502 is not a bad comparison, especially when the UNIX group were using it, it was already considered obsolete.

I think you might be underestimating the requirements for a UNIX like OS. An 8Mhz 68000 struggles, so how a 6502 is supposed to cope I'm not sure. Click to expand... Is it more…

Might want to investigate Minix. It's designed for teaching OS design, so even if a porting effort failed, it would be an educational fail . It is to some extent unix-like. …

OK, maybe I'm just talking to myself by now, but I found this site in Linux Journal magazine: http://www.freertos.org/ There's no port for the 6502/Apple yet, but I'm going to tak…
