Suntools will not run under SunOS 3.2 #6

I have a SunOS 3.2 image with SunTools (and just about everything else, really), and have been using it under patched TME-0.8, but the overall performance of the whole emulator is absolutely horrible, and am looking for a better option.

When I try to run Suntools, an immediate kernel crash results and a boot loop. :(

I have attached my disk here in this ticket, there is no root pw, and suntools can be started simply by typing suntools.

I guess nobody gives a shit. Would liked to have used this emulator in a series of videos on workstation use in the 1980s, but. ok. sigh.

I'm finally working on this. Something odd is happening. It looks like sleep() is doing a longjmp and the stack gets screwed up. Not sure why. But I'm (slowly) tracking it down.

Any hope on this? I have had a YouTube video that I've had to put on hold since 2021, because there is still no viable sun2 or sun3 emulation that can either run suntools, or the display is far too slow (tme/nme)
