To date, I've seen only bug fixes from >Steven Reiz (who did the port) and they are on plains.nodak.edu in: > pub/Minix/updates/1.5-fixes/amiga The most recent version of amiga minix can be ftp-ed from ftp.cs.vu.nl, [192.31.231.42], in the directory /pub/sreiz/minix: -rw-r--r-- 1 sreiz 62475 Jan 25 13:33 latest_aminix.lzh As you can see it has been lharced, an lharc binary for the amiga can be found in /pub/sreiz/PD. I will generally update latest_aminix.lzh immediately after we've compiled a new version. Please note that: - It's NOT the complete Amiga Minix distribution, and never will be because Amiga Minix is not public domain. The current file only contains the loader, minix, and the kernel image, minix.img, and some docs. - It's not an official release. It may print some debugging output, because it's really meant for beta-testing. Use it at your own risk. Regards, Steven Reiz
