When I first tried 1.5 (1.5.3, I skipped building 1.5.0), immediately after
typing = at the menu, boot failed with the message "Unexpected Sftwr Int #
03h." After browsing the sources for while, I found this near the
beginning of start.x:
| Trap to debugger if one is installed.
int 3
Removing that one instruction solved my problem.
Question: where does that message originate? My best guess is the BIOS,
since I couldn't find it in the Minix sources.
Question: how does one install a debugger when booting Minix 1.5 from
floppy disk? What debugging tools can be used with Minix?
Thanks in advance,
Tom Rich
