OS9 removed support for compressed resources and it breaks a bunch of the old After Dark screensavers There's supposed to be a way to uncompress the resources to get around it but I couldn't figure out how

(yes ultrix was so bad that it made osf/1 look good)

i have a decstation 5000/240 and a copy of osf/1 mips, but unfortunately the only scsi chassis i had that would talk to the 5000/240 went and died on me. no 1990s RISC microkernel fury for me the osf/1 mips "installer" almost works inside gxemul. it successfully boots the kernel in a miniroot, but the scsi tape emulation is not complete enough to finish an install.
