[comp.os.minix] Porting Minix to 68020 VME

uzun@pnet01.cts.com (Roger Uzun) (02/12/90)

I have to port Minix to a VME bus 68020 machine.  I am using the Atari
ST version as a base.  From what I can see, only the kernel will have
to be changed.  For now I do not have to use a, PMMU or anything.
It seems to get base Minix running, all should perform well once
I modify the kernels winchester task, write a bootstrapper, or
rather modifies the st's and re write the device dependent part
of the tty driver.  I will only support a winchester drive and
a single terminal tied to a serial port at 1st.  Once I get the
serial port and winchester mods in the kernel, the file system,
and all libs and commands should work unmodified, correct?
Am I missing something here?
