There isn't a pure "unix". The original versions of unix were available on 9-track tape for DEC PDP-8 boxes starting about 1977 from Bell Labs. Since then, all sorts of things have been added to the utilities and to the kernel.

What is it you actually want?

I think what he wants is a 'basic' Unix. I think he wants to move to Unix from linux and thats why he used the word 'Pure'? i dont know for sure but thats my guess if thats what you want look in Thread 1, Thread 2 , or Thread 3. Hope those helped, Dustin
