I'll admit up front that this may be an incredibly dumb question, so please hold the flames down to mild warmness. I have access to a couple of Ithaca Intersystems S-100 systems with bank switched memory (1 MB) and 10MHz Z-80B CPUs. These guys were originally MP/M machines configured for 3-4 users, and ran well that way. Both have 10MB (I think) hard disks. All terminal I/O is via dumb terminals on RS-232 ports up to 19.2. Given that all the assembly language I/O and interrupt service routines would have to be redesigned; is there _any_reasonable_ chance that MINIX could be ported to these boxes? I have an _old_ (c. 1983) version of Aztec C for them. Thanx...
