The reason I bought Minix in the beginning was that it
would run on my
PC/XT machine (the only PC I had at the time). And I learnt a fair bit
about OSes and enough C to be dangerous by playing about with it.
Yes indeed
8MB and a 386 is not a small machine!
8MB and the equivalent of a 386 is getting to be pretty close to a single
chip these days.
Feel like porting Unix V6 (as in the Lions Book)?
I quite fancy porting Minix to the PDP-11, but I'm sure it's been done
before.
