FreeBSD 1.0 is very old and very obsolete. What does (Cisco|Apple) IOS have to do with it?

FreeBSD 1.0 is very old and very obsolete.

It's of huge historical interest if it's a genuine, complete copy of Release 1.0, that's 30 years.

I doubt too many people will try installing it, but you never know!

waiting for iOS to enable ISO selection…

I'm totally mystified too ...

Yeah the other stuff there is confusing, just a temporary site I guess?

Where did you find it?

With pretty NSFW name just looking at the URL, I thought elgrande account was hacked.

Oh!

If there's NSFW stuff there it's well hidden - apart from the .NET pron, that is <&^}=

I suppose this ISO is different somehow than the one on archive.freebsd.org ?

Which one, precisely?

After wallowing around amongst the many ways of slicing and dicing directories there, I found

http://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/mirr...releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/FreeBSD-1.0-RELEASE/

which has in addition to the Walnut Creek 'cover.pnm', a 'cd1.iso' of the same size 661202944 as this one's 'FreeBSD-1.0-floppydisk.iso'

But without checksums or downloading both for diff, who can tell?

Hi,

If you wanna run FreeBSD 1.0 (1.0.2 to be precise), there is an interesting article by Tom Jones in the latest FreeBSD journal on this subject.
He even provides a qemu image to run with a simple command :

qemu-system-i386 -hda freebsd-ninetythree.img

and it works .

Cheers

Interesting... I didn't take a close enough look to notice the cover. There is this directory as well which contains a single iso and no covers, so maybe this is the one I'm thinking of. The size for this one is listed as 661200896. The plot thickens.

Great! I chose to download it, and thought the filename seemed vaguely familiar:

9a09afdf5fb325213a554aba948ae00a2e4bba06.2.pdf

Then found I already had it since 23rd June, when I'd renamed it to freebsd_journal_30y.pdf

(aside: I really don't get this trend of naming files for human use with long, impossible to recall hex strings)

He even provides a qemu image to run with a simple command :

and it works .

Excellent!
