V2.2.1 of Interactive Unix is now available as a 3 diskette
update for current users, or as a complete release for new customers.
The update includes Posix fixes, fixes install problems
with certain hard disk controllers (Seagate and Rodime IDEs, Adaptec
1640, WD1007V), and includes fixes for other install related issues.
The update is available through your distributor or Interactive for current
users who have problems in these areas.

New purchasers of Interactive Unix will receive a complete release
of V2.2.1 including the additional feature of disk compression on
all subset diskettes. Files are in compressed format, and are
decompressed during installation. This feature cuts install time
and number of disks requiring installation considerably.
