The differences between v1.1 and v1.3 of Minix, as far as ast has made them available to me, are now archived on bugs.nosc.mil for anonymous FTP or minix-server access. The names of the files are: diff1.1-1.3com1 diff1.1-1.3com2 diff1.1-1.3lib1 diff1.1-1.3lib2 diff1.1-1.3perror . By the way, does anyone ReAlLy know the version number of the initial release of Minix? It announced itself as "Minix 1.0" when it booted, but common parlance refers to v1.1 as the first version. Version 1.2 was the first updated version.

The version in the book was 1.0. The first distribution from P-H was slightly different from the book, and was 1.1. I forgot to update the message in bootblok.s. Sorry for the confusion.

The names of the files are: Anonymous FTP access to bugs.nosc.mil ? Have you tried lately or am I doing soemthing seriously wrong ? I can get at any other system (louie.udel.edu, simtel20, etc) but bugs does not fly. BTW - Is Louie using a different compress in its tar.Z ? everything I get from them is garbage. Have you ever seen a 2 meg file uncompress to 22 meg of unreadable garbage ? Lotsafun. :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ David Woodman UUCP: ...!uw-entropy!dataio!suvax1!woodman Seattle University USNail: P.O.
