I have a couple questions for all the Minix hackers out there. I am
currently working on a project to design and (at least partially) implement
a Remote Minix FS modification based on the Amoeba RPC. My current concern
is how to test the thing if I do manage to get a significant portion of the
code done. I was originally planning to run the Client and Server on the
same machine since Amoeba wouldn't care. However, the single-threaded FS
would cause my model to deadlock. I do have at least two machines that I
could use to test the thing, but no WD1003's. Has anyone written a driver
to send Amoeba RPC over a serial line? I certainly don't have the time to
build one myself; I might not even completely finish the coding on time.
It would be nice, however, to get _s_o_m_e_t_h_i_n_g running.
Oh, yeah, if anyone has an Excelan EXOS driver, I could use that too.
Thanx.

I have a student who did this for a project for me. I could send you his code.
