[comp.os.minix] Part time Minix on a 386...

dalton@arizona.edu (11/09/90)

This may be a very common question asked and if so please forgive me ...
but I just read through about 200 posts to this group and did not see an
answer.  

I want to run Minix on a Gateway 386 25mhz with 4 megs of RAM and a 105 meg
hard drive.  Now this machine cannot run Minix all the time (I will use Minix
all the time :) as certain DOS programs *must* be used on this machine.  Now
is it possible to use Minix part time?  Is there a problem with booting it
from a floppy and running under Minix and then rebooting under DOS, from
the HD, and using DOS apps?

Am I asking too much?  Please send email ... Thanks!!  :)
