have been trying to use fetchfile to get the upgrade sources by using fetchfile -dadelaide.edu.au minix/upgrades/FETCHME_FIRST but have had no luck. First is this the correct use of this command, ( no I cannot FTP) Also is this the correct machine name? if not, what destination node should I be using. Also what files and direectory path should I use and fetch first? Could some kind soul please enlighten me as I am still learning and an in the twilight. Also I would like to thank Andrew Cagney for the good and kindly work he has done getting these upgrades together, now if only I could actually just get hold of them. As a side note I have been looking at an old DEC C compiler and optimzer with the view of a learning exercise. With a bit of time learning about 286 archeticture, the pub domain version of yacc, my already written cpp I may be able to develop a compiler that gets .o files. I stress this will purely be a learning exercise but isn't that all minix originally was. Arthur Raiskio qfagus.qfdts.oz
