[comp.os.minix] MacMinix and System 7.0

roh@gmdzi.gmd.de (Peter Rohleder) (05/24/91)

MacMinix will not run under System 7.0.
Can we expect that there will be a new release compatible with System 7.0
or will this be the end of Minix support for the Macintosh ?

Hi *,
  Just thought I'd mention that I'm running a MacPlus, with Gemini accelerator
(68020/25Mhz) and system 7, and MacMinix works FINE for me.  It even works
with the multifinder capacity.
  Maybe it's a ROM thing, and dependant on having a Plus, but I know it works.
