We are currently running a pilot version of release 3.2 of the sun operating system (bsd 4.2 based). Without modification, the code we were using for our 3/160c ran as though the 3/110c was a color machine. We recompiled magic on a 3/110. We used standard sun 3 source (1986 as it comes off the tape + Bob Mayo's fixes for sun3 + latest version of scmos tech file). We have done two versions one without and one with the extract bug fix recently redistributed, no problems associated with that. There is one minor additional problem. The version of the operating system thinks that a 3/110c is a black and white sun (as identified by the ioctl calls). This is an additional problem to recompiling on a sun 3/110. To solve this problem, specify the device as a sun160 when invoking magic. ( magic -d SUN160 ...). Hopefully this problem will be fixed in the standard release 3.2 which our systems people just got and are installing now. By the way, the binaries for the 3/110c work fine on the 3/160c. -Mark
