# How to install ! Unix v5 on Ersatz-11?
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
We can run ! Unix v5 on the Ersatz-11 emulator. First, we need to download the ! Unix v5 kit.
|
||||
|
||||
## Downloads
|
||||
|
||||
You can download the kit needed to run ! Unix v5 from the [“SIMH Legacy” website](http://simh.trailing-edge.com/):
|
||||
|
||||
- [! Unix-v5 kit](http://simh.trailing-edge.com/kits/uv5swre.zip)
|
||||
|
||||
## Using ! Unix-v5
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
|
||||
If you have not already installed Ersatz-11 emulator, see [the VirtualHub Setup tutorial on how to do so](https://setup.virtualhub.eu.org/ersatz-11/) on Linux and Windows.
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
Extract the archive you downloaded. Inside you will find a file called several files. Create a folder somewhere to store the files for this VM and move the `unix_v5_rk.dsk` file into it.
|
||||
|
||||
Now we will create a config file for our VM. Create a text file called `e11.ini` with the following content in the VM folder:
|
||||
|
||||
```ini
|
||||
set cpu 45
|
||||
mount dk0: unix_v5_rk.dsk /rk05
|
||||
boot dk0:
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Now open a terminal and move to the VM folder. Run the following command to start the emulator:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
e11
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
After the emulator starts, you will get a `@` prompt. Type `unix` and press enter to run the `unix` kernel. You will be asked to log in. Type `root` and press enter to log in. There is no password.
|
||||
|
||||
You can now run `ls` to see the list of files. To change directory, you need to use the `chdir` command, `cd` is not available.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
That's it! We used ! Unix-v5. To exit the emulator, press `Shift` + `Enter` and then type `exit` and press enter. We can create a shell script to make it easy to launch the VM.
|
||||
|
||||
### Linux
|
||||
|
||||
Create a file called `unix-v5.sh` with the following content:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
#!/bin/bash
|
||||
e11
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now make the file executable:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
chmod +x unix-v5.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now you can start the VM using the shell script. For example, on KDE you can right-click the file and choose `Run in Konsole` or on GNOME, where you can right-click the file and choose `Run as executable`. The VM will start.
|
||||
|
||||
See the [manuals section](/1970s/1974/unix-v5/#manuals) on the [main ! Unix-v5 page](/1970s/1974/unix-v5) to learn how to use it.
|
||||
|
||||
### Windows
|
||||
|
||||
Create a file called `unix-v5.bat` with the following content:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
e11
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now you can start the VM by double-clicking the shell script. See the [manuals section](/1970s/1974/unix-v5/#manuals) on the [main ! Unix-v5 page](/1970s/1974/unix-v5) to learn how to use it.
