RISC/os
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
| OS family: | Unix-like |
- Not to be confused with RISC OS, an operating system originally developed by Acorn Computers.
RISC/os was an operating system distributed by MIPS Computer Systems, Inc. during the 1980s and 1990s for use with their computer workstations and servers, such as the M/120 server or MIPS Magnum workstation.
RISC/os was based largely on UNIX System V with additions from 4.3BSD UNIX, ported to the MIPS architecture.
Because of this early UNIX heritage, RISC/os was limited in comparison to modern UNIX variants—for example, even the last releases of RISC/os did not support shared libraries.
