We have a new release of Bochs (bochs-2.2.6-6.828r1)
running on Athena, and available for download
onto your Linux/Mac/BSD machine. See the tools page
for more details.

xv6 code tarball and printed
version are available. See Homework 4 for
details on how to run it. Also see the tools page for
details on the 6.828 version of Bochs. We've installed the 6.828r0 version of
Bochs on athena.lcs.mit.edu; single-stepping should work as expected.
If you installed Bochs on your machine before today, we recommend a reinstall.

From Lab 1:
Exercise 5 has been updated, and Exercise 9 has been deleted. Originally,
these exercises involed the PDP11 and are therefore not suited for this year's
syllabus. Like the old Exercise 5, the new one does not require any
work to be handed in.
