Interesting question :-D
first off, i LOVE unix to death, but i really only like the text/console side of it. im not big into the XFree86/Xwindows side of things.. so with that known... im in search of really old *nix's.. like way outdated, floppy OS's from way back in the day. im kinda in search of the pure'r UNIX's.
if anyone knows where i could attain any of the following in open-source of course, i dont wanna pay for any of these, nor should i have to.. except maybe the last one... but that would be great to find these older OS's for study and testing..

The wishList:

4.2BSD, 4.3BSD, 4.4BSD
SVR2, SVR3, SVR4, SVR4.2
XPG3
ULTRIX-11
PDP-7, PDP11/20
Authentic V3,V5,V6,V7 (mainly 6 and 7)
Old IRIX
if possible BSD1.x
UnixWare 2.0
OpenServer 5.0

and i dont even know if it really exists, but an open-source AIX (older obviously).

if anyone could tell me where some of those are, id be very greatful.

zcons

zcons(7D)							      Devices								 zcons(7D)

NAME

       zcons - Zone console device driver

DESCRIPTION

       The  zcons character driver exports the console for system zones. The driver is comprised of two "sides:" a master side with which applica-
       tions in the global zone communicate, and a slave side, which receives I/O from the master side. The slave side is available in the  global
       zones.

       Applications must not depend on the location of /dev or /devices entries exported by zcons. Inside a zone, the zcons slave  side is fronted
       by /dev/console and other console-related  symbolic links, which are used by applications that expect to write to the system console.

       The zcons driver is Sun Private, and may change in future releases.

FILES

       /dev/zcons/<zonename>/masterconsole

	   Global zone master side console for zone <zonename>.

       /dev/zcons/<zonename>/slaveconsole

	   Global zone slave side console for zone <zonename>.

       /dev/zconsole

	   Non-global zone console (slave side).
