You never said whether you were rebuilding from source or not. I assume
not. OSF is pretty picky and usually requires all source (including
support utilities) to be rebuilt from scatch. It is a 64 bit UNIX and
not binary compatible with anything. You probably will have to wait
on Oracle to create you a special version.
Porting on the Alpha kept me busy for several months. Received on Mon Aug 28 1995 - 00:00:00 CEST
