[comp.os.minix] multitasking

gp@picuxa.UUCP (Greg Pasquariello X1190) (01/04/88)

Being completely new to minix, I have a few questions that I wonder if you 
might answer.  I have just ordered minix for the PC, and was wondering if
it multitasks on the 8088.  Also, is the multitasking on the 286 version
implemented through the chip or the software (in other words, if the multitask-
ing is implementd on the 8088, is it implemented the same way on the 286)?


Thanks in advance.  Hope to be joining you for more meaningful discussions
real soon!
