1. Use the HD SC Setup program to create a Misc UNIX slice N partition
   on your hard disk.  10MB should be more than sufficient, since the
   emergency filesystem takes about 8MB as currently defined.

2. Run the setup.sh shell script included in this package, specifying the
   slice number you used for HD SC Setup as the only argument.

If you want to see what the script is doing invoke it with sh -v.

The setup.sh script assumes an internal hard disk at SCSI address 0.
If this is not true, patch the appropriate places.

Some of the files created in this filesystem may be unnecessary.
Most of them are here because if omitted, horrible things will happen.
Optimize this at your peril!

To boot from the emergency filesystem, when you launch A/UX from the MacOS,
interrupt the A/UX splash screen (the one with all of the copyrights) by
clicking on the cancel button.  You will be presented with a startup shell
window and a prompt.  Enter the following command:

launch -nv (0,0,n)/unix

where 'n' is the slice number your emergency filesystem lives on.

You will get some verbose garbage, but should end up in a console-mode
single-user shell.

There are a number of cosmetic issues I haven't addressed, such as a
friendlier interface after booting from the emergency filesystem.
As currently defined, you get a shell in single-user mode with
somewhat screwed-up terminal modes.  If anyone feels like polishing
this up, let me know, and I'll fold your changes in.

Enjoy!
