[comp.os.minix] Compatibilty of MINIX

boneill@hawk.ulowell.edu (SoftXc Coordinator) (04/02/88)

I am thinking of installing Minix on my system at home. However, a few
questions are running through my mind, and this should be the place they can
be answered.

	1) Is Minix compatible to BSD or Sys V UNIX systems? If not, how
	much porting needs to be done?

	2) Is there support for running MS-DOS programs?

	3) Is it possible to have MS-DOS on one Hard Disk, Minix on a
	second, and boot from either one?

	4) Are there any terminal programs available for Minix?

Please e-mail responses, as I don't subscribe to this newsgroup (yet).
