OSF/1

Before DEC sold Alpha machines running Tru64 aka Digital UNIX aka OSF/1, they had the DECstation line of MIPS based machines. DECstations ran an old school Unix named ULTRIX, which was at its core based on 4.2BSD. Back in the early 1990s DEC promised to port OSF/1 to the DECstation platform, a modern design with a Mach kernel. Later, after several announcements and a longer will-they-won't-they drama, DEC canceled OSF/1 on MIPS and decided to focus on the Alpha platform. Even though OSF/1 never turned into a proper product and many customers were furious, DEC released developer releases for OSF/1. Distribution tapes for 1.0 and 2.0 have made their way into the internet. Back in the days, DEC never claimed that OSF/1 on MIPS was a stable product. It lacks support for a range of hardware and it never received fixes or support in the long run. Then again, ULTRIX, the main OS for the DECstation, was an insufferable mess of bugs on top of a stone age Unix. It matured over time, yet by the time it had reached a proper level of stability, it lacked a number of features. OSF/1 on MIPS isn't as bad as you might expect. It will run on contemporary R2000 and R3000 based DECstations. R4000 systems were never supported. DEC also marketed OSF/1 for realtime applications, a feature that somehow became unimportant for later OSF/1 and DEC Unix releases.

[1]This is the original release announcement from 1992.

To install OSF/1 V1.0 you will need a supported harddisk to install the system. Supported disks include the RZ23 (100MB), RZ24 (200MB), RZ25 (400MB), RZ55 (300MB), RZ56 (600MB). It will work with the common 8bit 2D graphics cards. Some people say using a serial console does not work. That may or may not be true for some systems.

OSF/1 installation on a DECstation 3100

There are installation tape images available. One TK50 tape could hold about 95MB of data. The OSF/1 distribution comes on four tapes. You need to extract the OSF/1 install tapes and create something like a fake cdrom distribution:

create a directory "disk". cd to disk and create a new dir "RISC".

copy the files from the tapes to the new distribution directories. Create new subdirs: 

Tin0Install -> MPK
Tin1Kits -> BASE
Tin2Kits -> BASE (same dir as above)
Tin3RT -> RT

create a subdir "instctrl" in all dirs. Untar the respective f03.instctrl.tar there. Rename all the files, so they can be found by the installation procedure, like: 

mv f30.OSFDCMT100.tar.Z OSFDCMT100

The end result should look like this:

This is a suitable installation directory, but you will likely have no means to boot it on a real DECstation. So, we will call "ris" to the rescue. ULTRIX provides a great way to setup a remote installation server using "ris - Remote installation service". Make the distribution directory you just created available to a machine running a reasonably recent version (I tested 4.5) of ULTRIX. ULTRIX will be able to do cross-architecture installation, so any VAX or DECstation should be fine. You might even consider an emulated VAX using simh. For the following demonstration, the server will be a DECstation 5000/240 running ULTRIX 4.5: 

root@io:~# ris
REMOTE INSTALLATION SERVICE (RIS) MENU
a -  Add Client 
r -  Remove Client 
s -  Show Products in Remote Installation Environments
m -  Modify Client
i -  Install Software 
d -  Delete Software
e -  Exit

choose "i" to install new software to a remote installation environment. You need to have one environment for every OS release and platform (MIPS or VAX) you want. You can also add more software to such an environment later. Now enter your path to the BASE directory of you distribution set and follow the instructions. You can later add additional software to this installation directory. Once you have added the BASE subsets, also add the MDK, which is a mandatory upgrade. You can leave out the realtime extensions "RT" in my opinion. You can choose if you want to extract and copy the filesets to the server's local harddisk or if you want symlinks. I have always chosen extraction so far. Just make sure that you have enough space in /usr/var/adm/ris or create a directory on a new disks and symlink. Then, call "ris" again to choose "a" in the menu to add a client. Give you client's ethernet address. This will set up the software distribution and also start /etc/mop_mom on the server. Old DECstations and VAXen boot via MOP, the maintenance operation protocal. Make sure your client is added to the servers /etc/hosts file.

/etc/hosts should be beautiful like this: 

192.168.2.123   ds3100  ds3100.domain.tld

but NOT like this: 

192.168.2.123    ds3100.domain.tld  ds3100

If there are any errors during setup, you might get the following error during the installation of the client: 

Cannot find rzux1 in risdb file.  Check the sytem manager of                    
your host server.

Check to make sure: the client is in the /etc/hosts of the server the r services have to be enabled in /etc/inetd.conf on the server /usr/adm/ris/.rhosts should include the client /usr/adm/ris/clients/risdb should include the client


You can now boot the client from the server. For a DECstation 3100, the proper command is: 

boot -f mop()

Other DECstations will require other commands. The remote installation then starts by booting an ULTRIX 4.2 kernel (yes...), so you can partition a disk and copy a miniroot filesystem. It will then reboot to disk and start the OSF/1 kernel for the first time. The installation will go on normaly from this point on.

OSF/1 V1.0 will not accept any other HOME directory for root other than /.

building a new kernel: 

cd /usr/sys/conf
/usr/sys/bin/config NAME 
then cd to the ../NAME directory and:
make depend && make
then copy the kernel to /

Enable serial console:

Some people say that OSF/1 does not support serial consoles on MIPS. I have personally seen that it just won't work with a DECstation 5000 some years ago, but never found a definitive answer. However, it does work for the DECstation 3100 and OSF/1 V1.0.


Configure the hardware:

pull the framebuffer RAM module.

In the firmware (in theory): The 3100 needs: 

setenv console 8

other DECstations will need: 

setenv console "s".

keep the mouse connected or install a mouse loopback connector.

Unfortunately, I have a DS3100 with an early firmware revision (V6.71), which for unknown reasons does not like any serial console setting. It always stops at "3.." in the selftest declaring "FAILURE". You need to push the reset button then to get to the ">>" prompt. Even as it uses the serial port as system console, this prevents it it from auto-booting. Just entering "auto" will make the system boot up fine from the ">>" prompt.

Configure the OSF/1 software:

X11 is started by an entry in /etc/inittab: 

#cons:1234:respawn:/usr/sbin/getty console console pmconsole
xdm:23:respawn:/sbin/sh /sbin/xdm.init respawn > /dev/console 2>&1

to disable X11 and enable serial login change to: 

cons:1234:respawn:/usr/sbin/getty console console pmconsole
#xdm:23:respawn:/sbin/sh /sbin/xdm.init respawn > /dev/console 2>&1

This will essentially keep xdm from starting and enable a login: prompt on the console, either graphical or serial.

Building GNU software:

OSF/1 V1.0 ships with the MIPS C-Compiler 2.20. Thus, we are not completely lost.

if config.guess can't detect the OS, give "mips-dec-osf1".

m4-1.4

make-3.75

flex-2.5.4a

gcc-2.7.2.3: 

./configure --enable-languages=c --disable-nls mips-dec-osf1

Note: I found out that c++ and f77 do not work correctly. shared libraries on OSF/1 don't work! Assembler errors like "undefined assembler operation: .gpword" are likely due to the use of "-fPIC", which does not work correctly.

sed-3.0.2: will not build correctly with the native cc. Use gcc.

grep-2.3:

There is an ifdef broken here. fix btowc.c by deleting the ifdef around the typdef unsigned int wint_t.

binutils-2.12.2:

Note: binutils do not work correctly with OSF/1 on MIPS. Do not use. one concession to convenience is GNU nm, because "nm -o" is just great. I have copied this to "/usr/local/bin/nm.gnu".

libiconv-1.11 

./configure --disable-shared --disable-nls --enable-static mips-dec-osf1 && make

needs a lot of memory. Might fail with this error: "virtual memory exhausted". In this case, get more memory or more swap space.


bison-1.875: builds, but fails most of the tests.


pcre-8.45: add to pcregrep.c: 

#include <snprintf.h>


gcc-2.8.1:

Note: DO NOT USE --without-gnu-as! For some reason the configure will then assume that you WANT to use GNU as and the new gcc will create AS code that the MIPS assemble can't process.

fix gcc configuration with CPP definitions: gcc-2.8.1/config/mips/mips.h: add the missing definition "-D__LANGUAGE_C__" 

../gcc-2.8.1/configure --enable-languages=c --disable-nls --with-as=/usr/bin/as --with-ld=/usr/bin/ld --disable-shared --prefix=/usr/local/gcc281 mips-dec-osf1


X11R6.1:

I ended up building X11R6.1, because the system X11 is really old. Note: when you go for X11R6, you may see problems when you try to use the old OSF/1 Motif libraries.

edit xc/config/cf/site.def: and add: 

#define ForceNormalLib YES
#define HasSharedLibraries NO

this will prevent building shared libraries. created static libraries will not work as is. create a table of contents before linking any programs with "ar ts". after that, go to xc/programs and do a "make clean && make".

xc/programs/xterm needs to be linked with -lutil. It will fail with: 

cc -o xterm -O -Xa     -L../../usrlib main.o input.o charproc.o cursor.o util.o tabs.o 		  screen.o scrollbar.o button.o Tekproc.o misc.o 		  VTPrsTbl.o TekPrsTbl.o data.o menu.o  -lXaw -lXmu -lXt -lSM -lICE -lXext -lX11 -L/usr/X11R6.1/lib    -ltermcap  
ld:

Using archive ../../usrlib/libX11.a for -lX11
Using archive /usr/ccs/lib/libtermcap.a for -ltermcap
Unresolved:
openpty

but it will still link the binaries. Those binaries just create a segmentation fault. The solution is to do the "ar ts" for all the new libraries.

build Xaw3d as well.


building new X11 applications:

for new software it can be better to use gcc. change the config files in: /usr/X11R6.1/lib/X11/config site.def and osf1.cf. make sure it sets "#define HasGcc2 YES" and does not use the "-Xa".

that way, "xmkmf -a" will work for new packages.


rebuild all the things that use X11. Use these environment variables: 

CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6.1/include -I/usr/X11R6.1/include/X11 -O"
LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/X11R6.1/lib"
CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6.1/include -I/usr/X11R6.1/include/X11"
export CFLAGS LDFLAGS CPPFLAGS



xpm-3.4k: just do: 

xmkmf -a && make

don't forget: 

ar ts ./lib/libXpm.a
ln -s /usr/local/lib/X11/libXpm.a /usr/X11R6.1/lib/X11/
ln -s /usr/local/lib/X11/libXpm.a /usr/X11R6.1/lib/X11/
