[comp.os.minix] forking problems and 1.3 -> 1.5 problems revisited

aka@sage.cc.purdue.edu (rick cassady) (07/11/90)

All - 
	I'm having problems with the minix 1.3 shell (sh).  I'm getting
the message "try again" whenever I put something in the background, it completes
then I try to do a ls I ocassionaly get the message "try again".  I looked at 
code for sh and it looks like it's gagging on a fork ( sorry about the pun). 
Does anybody have any ideas?
	Now for a much rehashed topic.  I have 1.3, how do I get to 1.5?
email is prefered on this so as not to waste bandwidth.

Since this is being posted from a friend's account, send replies to
pur-ee!mdbs!ted. If that doesn't get thru, send to the below address, 
and it will get to me. Thanks.
