[BSDi] was formed to develop and distribute a commercial version of [BSD]. They rewrote the six remaing unclean[1] files from [4.3BSD_Net/2] and released [BSD/386] in January of 1992 (Just like Bill Jolitz did when releasing [386BSD]). |

Shortly after BSD/386 was released and advertised as [UNIX], Unix System Laboratories sued BSDi. Even if BSDi promptly stopped calling BSD/386 UNIX (and dropped the phonenumber 1-800-ITS-UNIX) UCL continued to hunt BSDi and now sued claiming BSD/386 contained proprietary code. BSDi claimed they only used code freely distributable by University of California so UCL resued both BSDi and UC, requesting an injunction on the shipping of Networking Release 2 from the University and on the BSDi products. |

After many legal moves back and forth [Novell] bought USL and stated that they'd rather win on the market than in the court, all axes were buried and the [4.3BSD_Net/2] release was now called [4.4BSD-Lite] and was included into [BSD/OS], [NetBSD] 1.0 and [FreeBSD] 2.0. |
