A/UX: Double-Clicking /unix Results in Core Dump (6/93)


When I log in to the Finder and then double-click /unix to start UNIX to
launch A/UX, I get a core dump.

What you're doing brings the Command Shell application to the front with
the "core dumped" error message when the execution of /unix fails. The
correct way to get a command line under A/UX is to go to the Apple menu and
select the Command Shell application.
