A friend of mine recently sold me his copy of Venix/86 which he wasn't using. It is Venix/86 ver 2.0 . It came out when the XT was only available with a 10MB hard disk. Unfortunately it thinks my system only has a 10MB disk. I've been playing with the partition table on the hard disk some, but haven't come anything definite. I do know that my drive has 8 heads and Venix sets up the original partition table as if it only has 4 heads. I've tried doing things like redoing the partition and rebuilding with mkfs, but it won't let have more than 20740 blocks on the disk. If anybody has had past experience with Venix, please contact me via e-mail. I run Unix machines (VAXen and SUNs) for a living so please feel free to get esoteric in replies. -- j UUCP: ...ihnp4!msudoc!eecae!lawitzke "And it's just a box of rain..."
