There's a friendly but rather finicky guy (let's call him "Eddie, the On-Board Computer" for naming purposes) who'll be glad to send you a copy if you ask nicely (i.e. use the right syntax). `His' address is archive-server@plains.nodak.edu. For starters, drop him a line with a simple "help" on it (the body of your message). If you're on the Internet, you can slither in behind his back with FTP. Hint: all `official' fixes for v1.5 are in `(pub/)Minix/updates/1.5-fixes'. BTW, "Eddie" should now know about a "compress12" format, and will uncompress and re-compress with 12-bit compression any files you request that way. -- Glen Overby <overby@plains.nodak.edu> uunet!plains!overby (UUCP) overby@plains (Bitnet)
