I'm new to this newsgroup and I don't know if this question has been asked before so please bear with me. Does anyone know if Minix runs on a Packard Bell VX-88 computer? It has a NEC V40 CPU which is supposedly 8088 compatible, but I'm not sure what kind of I/O chips it uses and Andrew Tannenbaum's book mentions that Minix will only run (as is) on machines that use the same I/O chips as the IBM PC. Any help would be appreciated. andrew@dgp.toronto.edu
