I've about run out of patience trying to do this on my own.

I'm trying to install News 3.0 on an iNTeL 310 box running Xenix R3.5.
this has three classes of problems:

	(1) It's Xenix rather than System V or BSD.
	(2) It's a System III derived Xenix.
	(3) It's an 80286 (well, an 80386 running in 80286 mode,
	    but the software neither knows nor cares)

If anyone can help me with any of these three I'd be grateful.
