ast@cs.vu.nl (Andy Tanenbaum) (05/13/88)
Here is the current list of clones on which MINIX works. It is probably way out of date, since many of the machines that 1.1 balked at, are acceptable to 1.2. Could you please check for you machine in this list, and if the list says 1.1 does not work, but 1.2 does, let me know. Thanks. Andy Tanenbaum Computer info source MINIX runs?
