I guess I should just post about every three days!  I just answered
this one last week.

Anyway, at CMU Mach is running on:

i386: Toshiba 5200 laptop
      Intel and Olivetti systems
      HP Vectras

68k:  Sun 3
      Macintosh II, SE/30, IIcx, etc.
IBM RT

VAX: Most models incl. multiprocessors

Decstation 3100

Encore Multimax

Sun 4/110

Elsewhere Mach has been ported to the Sequent Symmetry, various HP machines,
various experimental IBM machines, the IBM 370, the BBN Butterfly and lots
of other boxes.


Currently CMU distributes Mach for the Vax, Sun 3 and IBM RT platforms.
Requests shuld be send to mach@cs.cmu.edu.

Soon Mt Xinu will take over primary distribution of Mach for the Vax,
Sun 3 and IBM RT.  They have made numerous posts on this mailing list
about their releases.  CMU will continue to release experimental
versions of Mach to interested researchers with the next release
to be the "pure kernel" version also referred to as the 3.0 release.
Release of the i386 version of Mach is still under discussion.  We
are trying to work out the proper mechanics for the release.  Once
things have been worked out I will post the information to this list.
