I'm a new MINIX user. I'm currently running version 1.1 on an IBM X/T. My system consists of 1M memory, 40M harddisk, 1.44M floppy (drive A) and 360K floppy (drive B). I have a sooped up 12Mhz 8088 V20 processor. I have several questions: 1. I would like to run the latest version of MINIX that will work on the above system. Where can I find the necessary patches or updates? 2. In partitioning my harddisk between MS-DOS and MINIX, how much space should I allow for a MINIX partition in order to be usable? I would like to keep it to within 10M as I have a lot of MS-DOS stuff. Please send responses to my E-Mail address: CURTISS@hpuxa.ircc Thanks, Brent Curtiss
