     We have ported Xinu to the Macintosh family (68000 and 68020).  It
has a lot of Macintosh-ROM-specific details, but it would give you a
good start.  If you are interested, here is how to get it.

     Macintosh Xinu version 6 (for volume I of the book--includes no
networking) is available commercially via mailorder from Prentice Hall.
The software includes Aztec C source code and makefiles for the Xinu
system calls, C library routines, and utilities, including a
configuration program.  Send your order, along with $80 to

	Book Distribution Center
	  PRENTICE HALL
	Route 59 at Brook Hill Drive
	West Nyack, New York  10995

or call the mail order department at (201) 767-5937.  You can also order
version 6 or version 7 from us at Purdue.  The Aztec C compiler is
available from Manx Software Systems.

     Xinu version 6 (without networking) costs $100, and version 7
(internetworking) costs $200, payable to Steven Munson, if you order it
from us.  If you want to order it from us, send electronic mail to
xinu-librarian@purdue.edu, or physical mail to

	Xinu Librarian
	Dept. of Computer Sciences
	Purdue University
	West Lafayette  IN  47907

If you want version 7, you should specify the medium you want the file
server recorded on.  It is on the floppy disk as part of Macintosh Xinu,
but there is also a version that runs on UNIX available on 9-track tape
and a SunOS version on tape cartridge.
