Using the SunOS 4.x Work Environment With the Solaris Software

The SunOS release 5.7 software can use the old SunOS release 4.x system files and initialization files such as .login, .cshrc, and.profile to re-create the look and feel of the SunOS release 4.x work environment. Many of these SunOS release 4.x files can be converted, or used as they are, and executed easily.

The installation process in Chapter 3, Converting a SunOS 4.x System to the Solaris 7 Environment, explains how to re-create the SunOS release 4.x environment within the Solaris 7 operating environment.
