I would like to know if there is a version of Minix available for the Mac? Maybe someone tried to port the version for Atari on the Mac? Thanks for any hint.

am having a lot of trouble installing Minix1.5 on my Macintosh.
Configuration: SE/30 with 2 hard drives and System 6.04
I can boot from 00.BOOT and USR1, and with the commands
#maccreate 1000 "Hard Disc":file1
#hdopen "Hard Disc":file1 /dev/hd1
#mkfs /dev/hd1 1000
get a partition onto my hard disc.
However I cannot seem to be able to create /dev/hd0 on the hard disc.
The directions on P67 of the manual are confusing me.
What I want to do is to create a bootable system on the hard disc and
have a 5Mb partition that will take all of Minix. (binaries)
This as far as I understand will mean several zero partitions as well.
How do I edit the setup file without having Minix installed?
Can anyone provide me with walk-through instructions on how to do the above?
i.e. #maccreates
#hdopen's
#mkfs's
and /etc/setup_root ................
Help will be much appreciated.
