Overview
The IBM 6152 Academic System combines a Model 60 with a 32-bit RISC
processor (similar to the RT PC processor), together with a Motorola MC68881
floating point processor.
The primary OS for the 6152 is the IBM Academic Operating System 4.3
(IBM/4.3). The IBM/4.3 operating system is derived from the 4.3 Berkeley
Software Distribution (4.3 BSD) version of a UNIX operating system. The X
Window System, version 11 is provided as an integral part of IBM/4.3. The X
Window System is a network-transparent windowing system that provides a base
for the operation of application programs. Token-Ring and Ethernet networks are
supported on the 6152.
The 6152 is also supported by the DOS 3.3 and OS/2 Standard 1.0 operating
systems. When operating under DOS 3.3 or OS/2 Standard 1.0 the 6152 does not
use the RISC processor or RISC RAM storage. Only one operating system can run
at any time. DOS 3.3 and OS/2 Standard 1.0 do not support the RISC processor or
RISC RAM.
