[comp.os.minix] Need help with Toshiba 3100 install

hughes@iris.ucdavis.edu (S. Hughes) (10/16/89)

I am new to this group; so, sorry if this has been brought up
previously.
I am trying to install Minix on a Toshiba T3100.  Minix appears to run
correctly, but there seem to be problems with the scrolling of the
screen and accessing the hard drive.
Does anyone know if the patch for the T1100 will fix the screen on the
3100?  If so, could you please let me know where to get it.
Also, does anyone know of a patch for the hard disk?

BTW, I am installing version 1.2.

Thank you for any help,

Shayne Hughes

I am also looking for the Toshiba hard disk patch for toshiba laptops.  I
have a T1200 with a hard disk that I would like to use.

Also, I have been unsuccessful in getting my ram disk to load above 640 K.

The T1200 is an XT class machine, so I may be out of luck.

And, has anyone written any code to retrieve the time and date from the battery
backed clock?

thanks to anyone who can help....
