Hi

New release 0.0.55 at
ftp.nvg.ntnu.no:/pub/vms/freevms (freevms-0_0_55.tgz and linker-0_0_45)
(Linker might not change each time)

news:
General:
Make targets and scripts to make build environment and bochs image.
EDT (imported from ozone).
Trying to make the scheduler more conformative to VMS.
CONFIG_VMS:
Now 3c900 works, and it can be pinged for a while (it has the CMUIP stack).

Bugs fixed:
String-related in ioc$search.
Some bugs in logicals.
Forking with CONFIG_VMS.

New bug:
A sudden reset may happen with non-CONFIG_VMS.

Notes:
The UML version does still not work.
The CONFIG_VMS 3c900 driver is the only working network driver (eca0).
(3c590 might work, but is untested. NE2K (on Bochs) is not working.)
On CONFIG_VMS, no outgoing TCP/IP is possible unless someone port
the CMUIP clients or makes a wrapper from sockets to $QIO.
Floppy support is gone (did not work with scheduling fixes).
Some scheduling bugs remain (see linux/BUGS).

Next:
New librtl stuff?
Otherwise, these recurring lines are moved to TODO.

Regards,
Roar Thronęs
