OK, question on upgrading from Minix 1.1 - 1.2. I've gotten all
of the files from bugs. I even worked the .tar file correctly this time.
Now the only problems I have:
(A) I'm using patch on diff.patch, but I keep getting the message
"No more room on RAM disk" (or something like that). Then patch asks
for the name of the file to apply to, I type the name, and I get that
message again. This time patch goes off into never-never land. I tried
dumping the strings from patch to see if there was an option for writing
temp files to another directory, but I couldn't make hide nor hair. Does
anyone have a man page for patch? Did anyone have this problem and solve
it??
(B) I noticed that there exists: cc, cpp, etc... in /pub/Minix/bin.
Is this the "new" compiler for Minix 1.2? Also, I'm not exactly sure
what to do with my libc.a and the new libsrc.a. Could someone explain it
to me? And once again, what is the correct order of the files for libc.a
after the new routines have been placed in there? Would it be easier for
someone to upload their lib.c from Minix 1.2 and email it to me? I would
appreciate it. (uuencode it or something).
Thanks in advance!!! Please email responces to:
