I see that Minix is being ported to the ST. Is there any interest out there in a Minix port to the Amiga? I would like to indicate my own interest in see Minix up and running on the good old A1000 myself. While I'm not exactly a UNIX fan, and am definitely an Amiga FANATIC, I can see that there are quite a few advantages to having a UNIX-like o.s. over Amiga-DOS. If there are other Amigans out there who also want to get Minix for the Amiga, please make yourselves heard. Ian.

According to a previous posting, there is an effort to port Minix to the Amiga going on. Contact them at amiga-minix-request@ulowell.uucp. I too would love to have minix on my good old A1000, but unfortunately I do not have the time to do any of the work involved. I'd sure use it if somebody else ported it, though ;-).

I too vote for a port of Minix to the Amiga.
