(I assume that MINIX is now available -- There was talk about it about 5-6 months ago when I was reading this group regularly.) Does anyone know where I can get a copy of BOTH the executibles AND the source for this OS? Also, are there any ethernet/TCP-IP drivers available? Your help is appreciated.

Nope, not quite yet. About a month ago AST posted to comp.minix saying that it IS complete and HAS been delivered to Prentice-Hall, but they have to tool up for distribution. Should be Real Soon Now ;-) >Also, are there any ethernet/TCP-IP drivers available? AST also said something about network support in yet another recent posting (a brief summary of v1.3 improvements), but I don't know if it applies to ST-MINIX, but something along these lines is being done. Bottom line: Patience, it'll be along pretty quickly... Meanwhile, read the comp.minix group or subscribe to (whatever the digest is called). Your very legit questions are being answered. === Leo E.
