[comp.os.minix] Help requested - 1.3 files needed.

michaelb@vms.macc.wisc.edu (Michael Bloxham) (02/28/90)

I have finalized my list of files that I need to make my 1.3 version
of MINIX complete and ready for an upgrade to 1.5.0.  I would really 
appreciate some help in obtaining these files, either by ftp, bbs, email,
or ground mail.  I have already looked at Bugs.nosc.mil, Simtel20, 
LISTSERV, and the 1.3 diffs to no avail.

The following is a list of files that are missing or ones that I cannot
create or duplicate the crc from the P0 posting of the 1.5.0 distribution
kit:

1.3 crc size     file                                        what's wrong
------- ----     ----                                        ------------

17960  11073   * minix/commands/dis88/README              <- different crc
19257   7600   * minix/commands/dis88/dis.h               <- different crc
58032  17458   * minix/commands/dis88/dismain.c           <- different crc
16516    777   * minix/commands/dis88/disrel.c            <- different crc
55558   1473   * minix/commands/dis88/makefile            <- different crc
60732   7645   * minix/commands/lorder.c                  <- different crc
57349    494     minix/commands/makefile                  <- different crc
49653  60035     minix/commands/mined/mined1.c            <- different crc
58277  38509   * minix/commands/doc/USER_GUIDE            <- different crc
42220  39018     minix/commands/doc/lib.doc               <- missing
56449    474     minix/lib/IBM_PC/prtso.s                 <- missing
59092    251     minix/test/makefile                      <- different crc
59520   2249   * minix/tools/at_makefile                  <- different crc
39871     44     minix/tools/group                        <- missing

               * These were obtained directly from the 1.3 diff postings
                 a year or so ago as whole files, and they do not match the
                 crc list posted by AST as the official 1.3. (see partial
                 list on left)  Figure that out!
		 BTW - the crc list to the left are what I need; mine are 
		 different!

 That's it.  Considering the number of files that make-up MINIX, I don't
 consider this that many that I have missing or different.  I would really
 like to get my distribution straight!  Like I say, any help is greatly 
 appreciated.

thanks much,
mike
