I am new to this conference, so this may be a quetion already dealt with before ... but - .. but - Is there any work being done to port MINIX to the Commodore Amiga? The Amiga seems an interesting support venue due to its good hardware support for graphics & i/o... I note that Sun has done a port of their NetworkWindowSystem to it, I don't know about the File System... Also the Amiga has a complete (?) message pssing multi-tasking o/s base in ROM, which may be useful or may be in the way... I am running MINIX on the Amiga Sidecar, and find some screen glitches, I haven't tracked them down yet - interesting to have MINIX on both boxes... Cheers, B.Becker 416 699-1868 Toronto, Ont.
