| Sun seems to care about Solaris versus SunOS branding... |
| |
| Here is a mapping table that maps the `uname -sr` values to Sun's marketing |
| names. |
| |
| SunOS 1.x == SunOS 1.x |
| SunOS 2.x == SunOS 2.x |
| SunOS 3.x == SunOS 3.x |
| SunOS 4.0 == SunOS 4.0 |
| SunOS 4.0.x == SunOS 4.0.x |
| |
| Starting with 4.1.1B of SunOS we have the 'Solaris 1.0' release. |
| |
| SunOS 4.1.1B == Solaris 1.0 |
| SunOS 4.1.1.1 == " " |
| SunOS 4.1.1_U1 == " " |
| SunOS 4.1.2 == Solaris 1.0.1 |
| SunOS 4.1.3 == Solaris 1.1A |
| SunOS 4.1.3B == Solaris 1.1B |
| SunOS 4.1.3C == Solaris 1.1C |
| SunOS 4.1.3_U1 == Solaris 1.1.1 |
| SunOS 4.1.3_U1B == Solaris 1.1.1B |
| SunOS 4.1.4 == Solaris 1.1.2 |
| |
| The SunOS 5.x uname output maps to the Solaris 2.x numbers through 2.6 |
| |
| SunOS 5.0 == Solaris 2.0 |
| SunOS 5.1 == Solaris 2.1 |
| SunOS 5.2 == Solaris 2.2 |
| SunOS 5.3 == Solaris 2.3 |
| SunOS 5.4 == Solaris 2.4 |
| SunOS 5.5 == Solaris 2.5 |
| SunOS 5.5.1 == Solaris 2.5.1 |
| SunOS 5.6 == Solaris 2.6 |
| |
| After SunOS 5.6, they started numbering based on the second digit |
| |
| SunOS 5.7 == Solaris 7 |
| SunOS 5.8 == Solaris 8 |
| SunOS 5.9 == Solaris 9 |
| SunOS 5.10 == Solaris 10 |
| |
| The next version will be SunOS 5.11, but as of 2006-08-14 it is not |
| known whether it will also be called "Solaris 11". |
| |
| The common terminology is to use the name "SunOS ..." to designate SunOS 2.x, |
| 3.x, 4.x, and "Solaris ..." to designate SunOS 5.x. |
| |
| Most of these operating systems are obsolete. As of 2006-07-24 only |
| SunOS 5.7 and later are supported by Sun and are therefore of |
| practical porting concern for GNU applications. For the current list, see |
| <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solaris_(operating_system)#Version_history>. |
