Hey Charles!

 CB> Disk on chip, disk on module is pretty much the exact same thing

Not quite.  One looks like a bug with roughly 16 legs (pins) which is the disk-on-chip made by m-systems whereas the disk-on-module looks like a usb flash disk except isn't.  Both are eol as far as I am aware.

 CB> circa 1995 SCO Openserver 5.0.7 build

That is what I thought ... other than the year except I couldn't really say much for SCO one way or the other.  True64 would be something of interest to me.  That should run in a qemu virtual alpha.  I plan to look for an iso for it once I get everything settled down with my latest 'upgrade', mostly glibc-2.36 driven.

 MK>> 18680 bytes for a 64-bit version.
 CB> Yea that's not too bad either

Yep and right up to date to.  The reason it is so small as it isn't as feature full as the coreutils version.

Life is good,
Maurice
