Hello all, I have followed this group for over two years, I've had The Book for almost a year, and Minix-ST for about a month. :-) Last weekend, I wanted to do something serious with it for the first time. Needless to say, I found myself in a classical catch 22 situation. I don't want to go into it, but: Could a friendly MINIX-ST netter *please* send me uuencoded (Dumas-style, including tables -- I'm on BITNET) copies of: crc sed cv (the new version, recently posted as source) Other helpful binaries would be arc and zoo (has arc been ported ?). That would save me a *lot* (and I mean A LOT) of work). My problem is that I have to recompile Minix to incorporate a hd driver for my IC hast adapter board, since I have more than 4 partitions (and > 16 MB). If anyone has already modified the Minix-ST hd driver to use the ICD partitioning scheme, I'd LOVE to see that. To recompile Minix, I first have to get all these accumulated postings onto Minix-ST, and to take them apart I need sed, but to compile sed, I need to take the postings apart ... Please send word beforehand, I'll pick the nearest friendly helper ... :-) Many, many, many thanks in advance ... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bitnet: VBRANDT@DBNUAMA1 (will go away late '89) Volker A.
