I tried to compile the ksh that was posted to the mailing list yesterday, but had immediate problems. The compiler complains about a number of include files missing, e.g., alloc.h. Perhaps some kind soul could post these. After copying the root partition to a different part of the disk using tar I noticed that all my suid programs had lost their suid bit. Apparently tar ignores this part of the mode. Anyone has a fix? Finally, it would be useful to have a way to issue scsi commands directly from minix (rather than from the monitor). My inclination is to implement a /dev/scsi and pass pointers to command block etc. Is anyone working on this and/or have ideas on how best to do this? Thanks all!
