[comp.os.minix] Hardware requirement of MacMinix

c60b-4ah@e260-4d.berkeley.edu (Phantom) (01/18/91)

Could anyone tell me the hardware minimum (esp. ram and disk space) 
as well as optimal requirement of MacMinix?  Could anyone also tell me 
how Minix interacts, if at all, with the Mac user/programming environment?
I would appreciate your reply.

Many thanks

I am running MacMinix on a 2MB sorta-MacPlus with a 32 MB hard drive.  No
problems except too slow, not enough memory and not enough disk space.
(Donations gratefully accepted.)  The manual does not mention any hardware
dependencies, ie 68020/68030/68040, 68881, 68882, so ... draw your own
conclusions.  Maybe someone who actually has it running on a configuration
other than a 68000 can speak up.
