This package is Seth Robertson's Xkernel 2.0 (available from
sol.ctr.columbia.edu) with modifications and special additions to get
it to run under Linux.  Seth's package is much more impressive, with
auto install scripts and lots of options.  If you need those options,
you may wish to get his package and add them.  You should start with
this package, since it has the following things not in Seth's
package:

1) A modified Sun3 kernel that does 1k NFS.  This avoids the problems with
   IP fragmentation that still linger in Linux kernels with 8k NFS.
   (See README-Sun3-kernel-mods.)  This should no longer be needed on
   modern Linux systems, but was necessary around Linux 1.0.

2) Source for various Linux network programs that you may be missing
   or of which you may have outdated versions.

3) A few minor config file modifications to correct problems with Linux not
   being quite the same as a Sun.  For instance, the 100dpi font directory
   is removed from the fontserver config file, since it is often not
   present on Linux systems.  Also, the Sun3 init was modified to do -query
   instead of -indirect.  There may be other changes, but this is all I can 
   remember offhand.  Really not too much.  Seth has done a great job of 
   making the package flexible to different conditions.

4) A set of instructions.  They're not Seth's install scripts, but they're 
   not too bad.  In particular, I think the debugging info at the end may 
   be of some help.

I assume this package will eventually become part of Seth's Xkernel
distribution.  Does anyone want to work on this?
