ULTRIX 3 on VAX

Here, I will describe two Ultrix setups: Ultrix 3.0 on an emulated Simh VAX and Ultrix 3.1 on a real MicroVAX 3100. The emulated VAX is a lot faster than the real VAX.


restoring Ultrix 3.1 on a MicroVAX 3100

copy image to harddisk using dd
boot in single user mode:
boot/r5:2 dkb100

fsck edit /etc/fstab
edit /etc/passwd
edit /etc/group
edit /etc/ttys
edit /etc/hosts
edit /etc/resolv.conf
edit /etc/rc.local
build new kernel to recognize additional disks.
doconfig, then choose to edit config file with vi.
add:
disk rz2 at scsi0 drive 2 After building a new kernel, doconfig changes /etc/rc.local and uses the ident name of the kernel configuration as the new hostname. This might break things. Check and reset to a proper hostname. /etc/fstab: /dev/rz9a:/:rw:49:1:ufs:: /dev/rz9g:/usr:rw:49:2:ufs:: /dev/rz9h:/usr/local:rw:98:3:ufs:: /dev/rz2a:/home:rw:98:4:ufs:: df: Filesystem Total kbytes kbytes  % node kbytes used free used Mounted on /dev/rz9a 19183 7323 9942 42% / /dev/rz9g 239663 129235 86462 60% /usr /dev/rz9h 233247 46743 163180 22% /usr/local /dev/rz2a 191958 72583 100180 42% /home

The largest small 3.5" SCSI disk that is know by ULTRIX 3.1 is the RZ23. But we can just add the RZ24:

rz24|RZ24|DEC RZ24 Winchester:\
:ty=winchester:ns#38:nt#8:nc#1348:\
:pa#32768:ba#8192:fa#1024:\
:pb#131072:bb#4096:fb#1024:\
:pc#409792:bc#8192:fc#1024:\
:pd#81984:bd#8192:fd#1024:\
:pe#81984:be#8192:fe#1024:\
:pf#81984:bf#8192:ff#1024:\
:pg#245952:bg#8192:fg#1024:
This would likely work for other disks, but ULTRIX 3 very likely cannot use disks larger than 1GB. /etc/chpt works as known from ULTRIX 4.

Y2K:

set the date to 9912312359.59

then continue to set the date to 12312359.59 in steps until you reach the current year.

setld -l /dev/rmt0h

build GNU stuff:

gcc-1.42: 

sh configure vax
make
make stage1
make CC=stage1/gcc CFLAGS="-g -O -Bstage1/"

do a make install. Trust this stage. 

make stage2
make CC=stage2/gcc CFLAGS="-g -O -Bstage2/"

make CC="stage1/xgcc -Bstage1/" CFLAGS="-g -O"
make stage2
make CC="stage2/xgcc -Bstage2/" CFLAGS="-g -O"
make compare
make install

flex-2.5.4a scan.c want to include stdlib.h, which does not exists.

make check fails, because we have edited scan.c Trust and install anyway...

Ultrix 3.0: 

flexdef.h:
add: typedef int size_t;


gawk-1.01

sed-1.18 bison-1.25

Ultrix 3.1: edit /usr/local/lib/gcc-include/stddef.h and remove definition of size_t Ultrix defines size_t in <sys/types.h> as "typedef int size_t;"

Ultrix 3.0 works fine.


make-3.75 m4-1.4 bash-1.14.7

gcc-2.3.3 

ultrix 3 doesn't know about atexit().
#undef HAVE_ATEXIT before building gcc.

configure as vax-dec-ultrix3.1
then do a make bootstrap
gcc will use the host cc to build the first stage. This works.
You can also edit the Makefile and use gcc to build the first stage: CC = gcc


sed-3.02 

sed/utils.h:
#include <sys/types.h>


gzip-1.2.4a

gawk-3.0.6 

--disable-nls
protos.h:
uncomment: /* extern SPRINTF_RET sprintf P((char *, const char *, ...)); */
needs link with -lm
copy install-sh from gawk to /usr/local/bin/install

gcc headers: 

there is something in sys/types.h that gcc-2.3.3 cannot compile.
Fix the "volatile" on line 80 ff and copy the custom header to the gcc include directory.

grep-2.3

binutils-2.7 

binutils/arlex.c: remove includes of stdlib.h
ld/ldlex.c: remove includes of stdlib.h

On Ultrix 3.0:
if there are any "size_t undeclared" error, include <sys/types.h>

make install will fail. Copy as to /usr/local/bin/gas and ld to /usr/local/bin/gnuld.


gcc-2.7.2.3: 

incorrectly includes stdlib.h in ../gcc-2.7.2.3/cpplib.c
on line 73.

--with-as=/usr/local/bin/gas --with-gnu-as --with-ld=/usr/local/bin/gnuld --with-gnu-ld
--enable-languages=c,c++,f77

change Makefile: edit CC = cc to CC = gcc.
stage1 gcc cannot be build with VAX cc anymore.

Ultrix 3.0:
/home/compile/gcc-2.7.2.3/xgcc -B/home/compile/gcc-2.7.2.3/ -O -fgnu-runtime \

-c -DIN_GCC -O -g -I./include -I. -I.. -I/home/compile/gcc-2.7.2.3 -I/home/compile/gcc-2.7.2.3/config/ 

NXConstStr.m
Assembler:
"/usr/tmp/cca25075.s", line 182: Invalid type in .stabs
make[2]: *** [NXConstStr.o] Error 1

make[1]: *** [libobjc.a] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/compile/gcc-2.7.2.3'
make: *** [bootstrap] Error 2

retry withouth gnu as: also fails...
Foor some reason, ULtrix 3 and 3.1 won't build gcc-2.7.2.3.

gcc-2.5.8: 

--with-as=/usr/local/bin/gas --with-gnu-as --with-ld=/usr/local/bin/gnuld --with-gnu-ld
--enable-languages=c
change Makefile: edit CC = cc to CC = gcc

gcc-2.6.3:
--with-as=/usr/local/bin/gas --with-gnu-as --with-ld=/usr/local/bin/gnuld --with-gnu-ld
--enable-languages=c
change Makefile: edit CC = cc to CC = gcc

fails to build objc in stage1.
edit Makefile and remove objc from LANG


make-3.79.1: 

glob/fnmatch.c:
#include <sys/types.h>
#define NULL 0
do not strip the make binary. this breaks make.

function.c and job.c:
#ifndef remove
#define remove unlink
#endif

libiconv-1.9.2: 

needs some #include <sys/types.h> in files that use size_t.


patch-2.5.9 

dirname.h:
#include <sys/types.h>

config.h
#define HAVE_STRUCT_UTIMBUF 1

jpeg-6b

tar-1.11.8


tin-2.4.4: 

./configure --enable-nntp-only --with-domain=pcde.inka.de --with-nntp-default-server=news.akk.org --disable-nls --with-editor=/usr/local/bin/vim --enable-broken-system-fix mips-dec-ultrix3.1

pcre/dftables.c:
Ultrix fopen() doesn't understand argument "wb".
Change to "w+"

add to pcre/pcre_globals.c:
#include <sys/types.h>
extern void *malloc(size_t);
extern void *realloc(void *, size_t);
extern void free(void *);
