I've currently got Microport running.  I'm very pleased with it, although it
does have bugs, but Microport has been pretty good about supporting me.
As far as I can tell, it has all the stuff System V is supposed to have.
A couple of features, such as shell layering, don't work yet but R.S.N.

Documentation is standard man pages in the IBM PC manual size.  Installation
is a breeze.  I got the system installed in under an hour.

If you've got specific questions, feel free to drop me mail.  You want at
least a meg and a half of RAM to run in.  Anything less and the system
runs very slowly.
