# How to install ! Unix v4 on Ersatz-11?
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Sadly, we do not have a complete copy of Unix v4, but we do have a copy of a kernel that is from between v3 and v4. We can use that kernel with v5 userland. It can be used on Ersatz-11 emulator.
|
||||
|
||||
## Downloads
|
||||
|
||||
First, we need to prepare an image of Unix v5 with the `nsys` kernel. We have prepared such an image for you to download:
|
||||
|
||||
- [! Unix-v4 image (v5 root with nsys kernel)](https://github.com/InstallerLegacy/nsys-image/releases/latest/download/nsysroot.zip)
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to prepare the image yourself, refer to [our guide on how to do so](/blog/how-to-put-the-nsys-kernel-on-a-disk-image-of-unix-v5/).
|
||||
|
||||
## Using ! Unix-v4
|
||||
|
||||
:::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 `nsysroot`. Create a folder somewhere to store the files for this VM and move that 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: nsysroot. /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 `nsys` and press enter to run the `nsys` 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-v4. 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-v4.sh` with the following content:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
#!/bin/bash
|
||||
e11
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now make the file executable:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
chmod +x unix-v4.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/1973/unix-v4/#manuals) on the [main ! Unix-v4 page](/1970s/1973/unix-v4) to learn how to use it.
|
||||
|
||||
### Windows
|
||||
|
||||
Create a file called `unix-v4.bat` with the following content:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
e11
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now you can start the VM by double-clicking the shell script. See the [manuals section](/1970s/1973/unix-v4/#manuals) on the [main ! Unix-v4 page](/1970s/1973/unix-v4) to learn how to use it.

|
||||
|

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.

```bash

||||
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.

We can run [! RSTS-11 v4B](/1970s/1975/rsts-11-v4b) on the Ersatz-11 emulator. First, we need to download the ! RSTS-11 v4B image.

## Using ! RSTS-11 v4B
|
||||
|
||||
:::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.
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
Create a folder somewhere to store the files for this VM, and move the file named `RSTS11v4B.DSK` 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 05
|
||||
set memory 64
|
||||
mount dk0: RSTS11v4B.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 `OPTION?` prompt. Type `START` and press enter. Next, you will be asked for date. Provide the date in `DD-MMM-YY` format. For example, `05-JUN-74`. Try entering a date before the year 2000, to avoid problems related to [Y2K](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2000_problem).
|
||||
|
||||
After that, you will be asked for time. Enter the time in `HH:MM` format. For example, `19:23`. You will be asked if you want to enable crash dump. Type `Y` and press enter.
|
||||
|
||||
Now start PIP by executing `RUN PIP`. After PIP starts, you will get a `#` prompt. You can now type `/DI` followed by enter. It will list all the files available on the disk.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
That's it! We used ! RSTS-11 v4B. We can create a shell script to make it easy to launch the VM.
|
||||
|
||||
### Linux
|
||||
|
||||
Create a file called `rsts-11-v4b.sh` with the following content:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
#!/bin/bash
|
||||
e11
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now make the file executable:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
chmod +x rsts-11-v4b.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/1975/rsts-11-v4b/#manuals) on the [main ! RSTS-11 v4B page](/1970s/1975/rsts-11-v4b) to learn how to use it.
|
||||
|
||||
### Windows
|
||||
|
||||
Create a file called `rsts-11-v4b.bat` with the following content:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
e11
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now you can start the VM by double-clicking the shell script. See the [manuals section](/1970s/1975/rsts-11-v4b/#manuals) on the [main ! RSTS-11 v4B page](/1970s/1975/rsts-11-v4b) to learn how to use it.
