Hello,

I would like to contribute some of my install images.
How can I do that ?

I'm also searching for Solaris 2.6, 7 for intel series
any release of BSDi (only have 4.1)
dynix/ptx for x86
dg/ux for x86

Please share it!

I uploaded the iso. Please contribute the file in the site FTP as I don't have access yet.
About the installation - I'm pretty sure the installation iso has some errors in the man packages, but you can safely ignore this. Just reboot and remove the installation media

Good luck!

But unfortunately the ISO file is corrupted. Normal CD Imaging programs (7-Zip, WinImage, PowerISO) cannot open it, I tried mounting in VMWare or QEMU but they don't even boot the CD Image.

You cant boot on virtualbox/virtualpc/vmware etc... I don't know why. Try it on real 486,586 machine. I installed it from that image before 1month.
Good luck!

Did you have same checksum?
Or say, you rip the disc incorrectly?

EDIT: Once I insert 40KB header from other ISO file, the disc layout can be seen, but the content is wrong as the header doesn't match.

The hashes are the same and I just tested the image but its really corrupted

Sorry for that, I will upload it again.

The bootable .nrj file can be used only on Microsoft VirtualPC and vmware. I'm not sure on which versions. Currently its Ok with latest vmware release and MVPC 6.0.192.0
Good luck!

Tested on Virtual Machines. VMWare Player 4.0.2, VirtualBox 4.0.2, QEMU 0.15.1(default settings) all stalls in "Found isa0(root)" looping in RDTSC operator.
qemu -cpu 486 doesn't stall but BSDi can't recognize QEMU CD-ROM drive, I have to burn a CD and test it in real PC.
my old good Dell GX110 did the job well, but the X11 server have no driver for i810 display adapter and I have to use VGA (4bit Color) instead.

Thank you for the link.
Actually I'm going to purchase a DELL SRV4 package, however the tape is damaged and I'm interested installing it on real computer, so I asked these folks to make a QIC image
