Old versions of Raspbian can be downloaded from:
<http://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/images/>
Given the dates on my file system, I would say ?raspbian-2018-06-29?. You can upgrade the
userland code but don?t update the kernel after you build the modified version.

This is a snapshot of my decnet directory and dnprogs from about a year ago
when I got this working. The base kernel was cloned by:
git clone ?depth=1 -branch rpi-4.14.y
https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux
<https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux>
Extract all the files from the above zip file and:
1. Copy files from the zip file include directory to <kernel>/include/net
2. Replace the <kernel>/net/decnet directory with the zip file decnet
directory
3. Config to add decnet support and rebuild kernel+modules
I have no idea if this will work with newer kernels.
I made a few changes to the original source code I received:
Kernel code:
Added special handling for the 0 area:
Connect to 0.0 connects to the local node
Connect to 0.n connects to node ?n? in the local node?s area
Utility programs:
Fixed a number of bugs in cterm and DAP especially related to talking to
Tops-10.
Allow the DAP utilities (dncopy, dntype etc) to use DECnet-Ultrix syntax
for specifying access control infomation:
node/username/password/account::
which avoids the double quoting required to use the VMS syntax on Linux. To
enable this feature, create an environment variable called
USE_ULTRIX_SYNTAX
Given that Raspberry Pi just released their version of Debian Buster which
uses kernel 4.19.x I?ll probably take a look at getting running there and
create a github repository for the changes. I need to finish my current
project so it will probably be a couple of weeks or so.
