From the readme.html file:
# Tenox Operating Systems Archive
This is an archive of operating systems, firmware, drivers and documentation.
We mostly focus on RISC systems of the 90s and early 2000s.
## Directory structure
The main part of the archive is the /os directory that is sorted by operating system name. Each os subdirectory will have install media, apps and docs for that specific OS. For systems that have multiple names eg. `OSF/1`, `Dec Unix`, `Tru64`, we would name it from first to last, eg. `osf1-tru64`.
The other top level directories like /apps /hw and /docs are for categories that do not fit with an OS. For example apps that run on multiple operating systems or docs for hardware that runs many OSes.

- dark-star 3y agoYes, Tenox's archive is awesome and you can find some very rare and interesting bits on there. But it is also terribly un-curated. Some directories look like someone just slapped a bunch of ZIP archives in there without checking. Some archives don't have version numbers at all, sometimes the version numbers are wrong, sometimes you end up with three archives containing the same disk images just in different formats. Still, it'S the best place to find rare and unexpected things, so I can definitely recommend it, if you have enough time to do the sorting/curating yourself
