 Systemology
 ===========
 
    This section aims at presenting some systems and pointers to
 documentation.  It may help you addressing particular problems reported
 by users.
 
    The Rosetta Stone for Unix(1) contains a lot of interesting crossed
 information on various Unices.
 
 Darwin
      Darwin is also known as Mac OS X.  Beware that the file system
      _can_ be case-preserving, but case insensitive.  This can cause
      nasty problems, since for instance the installation attempt for a
      package having an `INSTALL' file can result in `make install'
      report that nothing was to be done!
 
      That's all dependent on whether the file system is a UFS (case
      sensitive) or HFS+ (case preserving).  By default Apple wants you
      to install the OS on HFS+.  Unfortunately, there are some pieces of
      software which really need to be built on UFS.  We may want to
      rebuild Darwin to have both UFS and HFS+ available (and put the
      /local/build tree on the UFS).
 
 QNX 4.25
      QNX is a realtime operating system running on Intel architecture
      meant to be scalable from the small embedded systems to the hundred
      processor super-computer.  It claims to be POSIX certified.  More
      information is available on the QNX home page(2), including the QNX
      man pages(3).
 
 Tru64
      The documentation of several versions of Tru64(4) is available in
      different formats.
 
 Unix version 7
      Documentation is available in the V7 Manual(5).
