Hello,
I have been having some problems with df and du. When I invoke them
they seem to load up off my hard disk, sit for four, five seconds and then
start filling the screen about using an interrupt below 16. At first I
thought it was a parity problem with my memory since that is tied to the
NMI line (interrupt 2). With this in mind I ran the Zenith diagnostics and
found no problem with the memory. I had the same problem at both 4.77MHz
and 7.37 MHz. I even recompiled df, but with no change in the results.
Anyone have any ideas? I would like to get this problem cleared up.
I enjoy using Minix and have learned quite a bit from it, but this is a
pain in the butt. Thanks for any suggestions, comments, smart remarks in
advance.
Oh, by the way my system is composed of:
z151 running at 4.77/7.37 (using the speed up board found in REMark)
v20
720K of memory
four floppy drives
and a 5M hard disk running on a Zebec controller from Zenith.
