| | 386BSD - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | 386BSD was written mainly by Berkeley alumni Lynne Jolitz (B.S Physics) and William Jolitz (B.S. Computer Science). | | | 386BSD, also known as JOLIX, is a free operating system produced from the BSD derived UNIX operating systems for the Intel 80386. | | | William Jolitz had considerable experience with prior BSD releases while at the University of California at Berkeley (2.8BSD, 2.9BSD) and William Jolitz and Lynne Jolitz contributed code to Berkeley developed at Symmetric Computer Systems during the 1980's. |

| | William & Lynne's Excellent Operating System - 386BSD |
| | William and Lynne Jolitz were inspired to work on 386BSD by the experience with Symmetric Computer Systems (see "William Jolitz and Symmetric Computer Systems") and the uses of BSD on a ubiquitous platform it inspired. | | | 386BSD was not intended as an omnibus project to "hack Berkeley Unix with", but to refine operating systems concepts. | | | Early on, many contributions and effort was pushed to "explode" rather than reduce complexity, often without justification other than "that's the way we do it". |

| | The purpose of the 386BSD project remains the same: so students, faculty, staff, and researchers can use BSD on a simple and inexpensive platform. | | | It was quite a chore for us to continually revise and improve 386BSD while updating it to match the new work done by CSRG and other UCB staff. | | | So, in making a break with the past, I paused in my series of 386BSD porting articles, took the unencumbered but incomplete NET/2 kernel available from UC Berkeley, and fin- ished the missing pieces necessary to make a bootable run- ning kernel that provides a self-supporting development environment. |

| | Why FreeBSD |
| | 386BSD was never meant to do much except suggest which UNIX should go on the Intel chip. | | | The 386BSD project came into being in 1985 as an attempt to get BSD UNIX to run on an Intel chip. | | | We might take comfort in the fact that even a luminary as exalted as Bill Joy was dismissing the Mac in the mid-1980s as a machine no one in the UNIX world cared about. |

Leffler, Marshall Kirk McKusick, Michael J. Karels, John S. Quarterman, 1989, Addison-Wesley, ISBN 0-201-06196-1. | | | In addition, many people are involved in a project to put together a 386bsd version (FreeBSD) which will be a complete distribution set including all relevant patches and updates to new versions of many of the software packages that are currently available. |

| | Meta - An Interview with Linus Torvalds |
| | A long release cycle is the way to go in a controlled environment (i.e., commercial development), but I think it hurts the "free" development that results from a lot of unconnected persons having access to sources and doing lots of modification. | | | William and Lynn Jolitz developed 386BSD first, but due to conflicting visions and a closed development process, 386BSD has not been updated in a long time. | | | The NetBSD project may be a step in the right direction, but I think 386BSD has been hurt by the way it has been developed. |

| | NetBSD would not be possible were it not for the work of the UCB Computer Systems Research Group, which released Net/2, or the work of William and Lynne Jolitz, who brought 386BSD into the world, or the work of the thousands of contributors to Net/2 and 386BSD. | | | In addition, many programs in UCB's second BSD Networking Software Release which were missing from 386BSD have been integrated into NetBSD, some of the changes from the upcoming 0.2.3 patch kit have been included, and many local additions and bug fixes have been performed. | | | Please include your system configuration, and any other relevant information in your bug report. |

| | The Strength of BSD |
| | Further, at the time, it was believed by many that the BSDI distribution would probably be of a higher quality since professional developers were employed to maintain the code. | | | Though FreeBSD has been ported to the Alpha processor, it is primarily focused on developing a highly optimized version of BSD for the Intel/AMD platform. | | | Others soon took up the mantel and over the next several years, five interrelated BSD-based distributions were spawned each generally focusing different goals: BSDI, NetBSD, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and finally Darwin/Mac OS Berkeley Software Design, Incorporated (BSDI) was a company and a distribution dedicated to the more commercial aspects of BSD. |

| | The FreeBSD Diary -- Why is Linux Successful? - An Opinion. |
| | The BSD systems distribute a full system source tree, in that they maintain a large proportion of a full system so when you do a build you make a large proportion of your unix system. | | | Both NetBSD and FreeBSD moved to being based entirely on the 4.4lite code base, NetBSD with version 1.0 and version 2.0 for FreeBSD (by then 386BSD was a dead system, OpenBSD split well after this). | | | As part of the resolution the 4.4lite code base was given a clean bill of health by Novell. |

| | I believe this is because we did carefully maintain a policy of careful review, testing, and control, and kept our focus on continuing the Berkeley Software Distribution tradition of quality research we had learned while at UC Berkeley. | | | However, we had a responsibility to the magazine, the readers, and the users of 386BSD to provide the best environment we could, in the original Berkeley tradition. | | | Sadly, this work was more resented than admired precisely because it was different than what had been done before. |

| | Not many Linux-come-latelies know this, but Linux was actually the second open-source Unix-based operating system for personal computers to be distributed over the Internet. | | | But somehow, in the 18 months between 0.1 and 1.0, the project lost its momentum. | | | Like its predecessor, 386BSD Release 0.0, Release 0.1 comprises an entire and complete UNIX-like operating system for the 80386/80486-based AT Personal Computer." |

| | I remember first downloading 386BSD 0.1, the first usable open-source port of the BSD tapes to the Intel architecture. | | | 386BSD, in it's early years, had far more users than Linux, and a far more mature base to work from. | | | (In contrast, 386BSD needed patches for X support, which came very early on, and handled basic networking from the word go.) 386BSD had everything going for it, bar the very closed, secretive, slow nature of the releases, and Linux had nothing but a few devices. |

| | Our original goal was to produce an intermediate snapshot of 386BSD in order to fix a number of problems with it that the patchkit mechanism just was not capable of solving. | | | This was based on the 4.3BSD-Lite (``Net/2'') tape from U.C. Berkeley, with many components also provided by 386BSD and the Free Software Foundation. | | | The first CDROM (and general net-wide) distribution was FreeBSD 1.0, released in December of 1993. |
