[comp.os.minix] MINIX on a 68000

mjohnson@druhi.ATT.COM (JohnsonMA) (12/19/87)

A few months back there were numerous postings about Beta testers for a
version of MINIX that ran on 68000, Atari ST's in particular.  Would
someone care to update us on how that work is going?  Will the final
product be sold through Prentice-Hall?  Many of us are waiting with
bated breath.

Minix-ST is really in the works and will be distributed by
Prentice-Hall. It will be spring 88 before it is available.
