I have MINIX 1.1 currently running on my Samsung 3001 PC/AT
Clone. What I need are the upgrades to 1.3xxx. I heard of a few
archives that I would be able to access, one of which is supposed
to have the files that I need, I cannot however access it through
FTP, I have tried it various times thinking that the network is
busy etc... In any case I'm sure some other people might like to
know the address, so here it is.
bugs.nosc.mil in directory pub/Minix
Thats what I have been told, and that's what I have tried,
and none the less, all have wound up in failure so far. What I
need are the diffs, and the important posts about the bugs.
That's it, and no more, however I do realise it is a lot of
information, but it is needed. I know you can buy an upgrade kit
from Prentice Hall, but that is only good up to the issued 1.2
which is currently on the market. I however need serial drivers,
and kermit so that I may do file transfers. I also will need EGA
in a few months. I was also wondering if there is a way of
telling minix there is two printers on the system. I just
started using Unix like operating systems, and Minix is my most
frequent. I was expecting Minix to be a usefull tool, and not a
project, but it is fun none the less, and well worth the price.

I'm looking for help getting Minix to talk to my hard-disk. I have a "mixed" bag of Tandon 20 Meg disk with the long WX-1 controller. I've had no luck getting it to work and I'm not a Un*x (or any other type of computer expert). I'd really like to talk to someone in the Washington, DC area. (I understand telephones.)

I'm looking for anyone who is taking/teaching a course using Minix to help me out. I work at a job in which I don't have a chance to go to school and would like to get ahold of the coursework and stuff for this. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -Dwight Hubbard USENET : lron@easy.lrcd.com - -Kaneohe, Hawaii CFR : 31:910/101 (Dwight Hubbard) - - BIX : lron - ----------------------------------------------------------------------

All we do when we teach a course is to ask, plead, cajole, force, threaten, and otherwise somehow manage to manipulate students into (a) reading the book and (b) looking at the software (this is usually disguised as a "project").

Hello All (this is my first post so please bear with me) I just became the proud owner of the MINIX demo disk for the IBM PC. I got the file written to a disk and then tried to boot it. At first everything seemed fine...but when i typed u to start MINIX The system gave me a message at the top of the screen that read Nonmaskable interrupt process number -9, pc=0x0060:0x00005c95 Kernel panic: exception in kernel, mm or fs Type any key to reboot after typing a key the machine does a warm boot and the cycle goes on. I have an IBM clone that I put together myself with various parts. Is there any hope of me getting it to run (I remember reading that MINIX may not work on clones) on my system, or should I give up? Thanks a bunch for any help anybody can give me. -tommy
