There were a number of wierd differences in the userland utilities,
especially related to system administration and NIS.  I think the core
stuff like syscalls, libraries, etc, were all fairly normal SunOS.  (This
is judging from the sun3/SunOS 4.1 manpages, which contain a lot of 386i
information, especially on the differences.  I've not actually spent any
time on a 386i).
