Could the person who ported minix to the ST please send me some mail? I would like to have quick discussion about how forking is done; i.e. what the strategy for copying that code, text and bss segments is. I was all set with my 68000 mmu code when someone asked why it can't be done like the amiga port. I was already with some snappy answers when I decided to drop back 10 and find out if someone else has a better idea. Sometimes those snappy answers are just dogma ;-) Don't you have to copy the text and bss segments back "down to zero" each time you schedule the process to run? Is this not slow as molassas? -brad -- Brad Parker Cayman Systems, Inc. Cambridge, Ma. brad@cayman.com
