		I have installed the xinu sun3 version on a sun 2/160 
(front end) and a sun3/50 with a Micropolis (back end)
		I have been able to use the sun's KADB with Xinu and
                I use "tip ttya" instead of "odt"

	1/ to use KADB:
		- install KADB and a.out(not stripped of Xinu) on root of sd0a
		- modify  the file evec.c 

initevec()
{
	...
	...
	...
---------------------------------------------
    for (e=2; e<NUMEVEC; ++e)
#ifdef KADB
	if(e != 9 && e != 42)/* trap vector used by KADB */
#endif KADB
        set_evec(e*4,trapX);
---------------------------------------------    
}

		- and boot with kadb option
			>b sd()kadb -d
			   boot:sd()xinu
		  you are now in kadb
			kadb>
			kadb>~~.
		  and with "tip" you can stop and return on the front end and
		  go back on Xinu ^D
			kadb>
		  or you can stop 
			kadb>~#
		  and continue  with "tip ttya"
			>c
			>c

	2/to use "tip ttya" you must add in /etc/remote
		ttya:dv=/dev/ttya:br#9600:



			it works very well and I am waiting for the new 
version with Ethernet .
