Why do you want a standalone /unix?

B2 Frequently Asked Questions
The most compelling reason for a standalone shell is when the primary drive has gone down and must be recovered. While working from a standalone /unix is slow and tedious, it can often save an entire hard disk with minimal data loss. We have also used this standalone shell to repair a corrupt /etc/inittab, to fix /etc/passwd, to restore a /bin/login that had been removed, and to install new bootstraps on the hard drive.

What is the standalone installer?

Frequently Asked Questions

The result is a control which has no dependencies on any other version of Mozilla or the GRE you may have installed on your machine.

I want to use the game in locations where there's no net access - can I get a standalone version?

breathe (the overdose game): FAQ
Unfortunately no, not at this point. The game itself is running on linux, a variant of the unix operating system. The web-based stuff is just the human friendly front end. To turn the game into something that would run by itself on a Macintosh or Windows computer would require a complete rewrite from the ground up. Given that we're both rather tied up with other work at the moment, we're unlikely to be able to take on such a major project in the near future. Sorry.

C.1. I want to use disks and printers that are connected to Unix machines. Can I do it?

The comp.sys.acorn.networking FAQ
Yes, though not for free. You need an NFS client. The full Acorn TCP/IP suite (which is a commercial product, unlike the stack itself which is freeware) includes an NFS client, and ANT's OmniClient software also includes NFS support. Once you've obtained the necessary client software, you need to make sure that your Unix machines are running the right servers. You may need to run "pcnfsd" or something similar in addition to your standard NFS daemons to allow access from RISC OS machines.
