OK, What have I missed?  I have an out of the box copy of MINIX 1.5,
an out of the box installed copy of the ANSI compiler, and the 1.6.16
upgrade package.  None of the makefiles were workable and had to be rewritten.
Several changes needed to be made to each part of the system to make it
compilable, and now when running build I get 'kernel data space: no 
magic #'.  What gives?  What have I missed?  Someone else must have had
the same problem.  Help please.

Thanks to Rainer and Frans for answering, but I'm a little bit
confused about Rainer's statement:

> It  is absolutely necessary to compile it (tools/build) with the new
> headers and library.

Using Rainers hint to extract end.o from the new libc.a and copying it
to /usr/lib I was able to link build with the new libs. However build
won't run. ( I used the *1.5.10* cv).  build immediatly returns
without any error message. Will any program linked with the new lib
run on a standard minix? (Is this a bootstrapping problem?)

So I decided to link with the *old* libs using new header files. It
looks very fine until I boot the system with the newly created kernel.
Almost immediatly first mm and than fs crashes. The dump looks quite
reasonable, except for the stackpointers of both processes. MM's
Stackpointer is 601abbcc :-). FS: da56 (kernel area). The Programm
counters are located at an offset of 12 to the beginning of the
codesegement of both fs and mm. One of the possible mistakes I made is
that I did not build "build" correctly. Any Hints?

greetings

No, this isn't true.  I ran Minix on a PS/2 model 55sx with no problems.

1) Minix will run on anything in BIOS mode.  What this means is that
   it will run slower and you can't access memory over 1 meg (among other
   things).

2) It has microchannel support if you are using an ST-506 disk interface.
   If you don't, you have to run it using the BIOS option.

I ran it using BIOS since I had a SCSI drive instead of an ST-506, but
you can always write another driver for it (I was lazy).

However, in general, I have found Minix works better and is easier to
use on ISA machines (AT-bus).  But this is a fact about microchannel
in general (grr....), and there's nothing wrong with Minix.

Microchannel is great when you finally get something to work with it,
but getting something to work with it that doesn't cost twice an ISA
solution is a different story (IMHO).

Anyhow, given the choice, I liked running Minix better on an ISA bus
rather than microchannel, but it can be done on either.

Hello all readers of comp.os.minix

If have been reading about the new ANSI compiler from Mr Tanenbaum.

I read that it runs on 386 AT's. Can I use the new compiler with
Bruce Evans 386 MINIX. Is the compiler able to produce 386 code
from 286 mode and vice versa like Bruce's bcc.

Thanx to all

 Although you can't get official complete version via ftp, you can get
 the upgrade kit from many ftp sites.
 e.g.
     bugs.nosc.mil [128.49.16.1]  in directory pub/Minix

Hello minixers,

I have recently upgraded to minix-386, thanks Bruce,
I have a few questions about where to go from here.

Now that I am there I would to install a graphical user
environment.  I have heard a few things about MGR but not
to much about mini-X.  Could those out there that know the
specifics of each reply with features of each system.

Secondly I have installed gcc 1.3? what is the most current 
version of gcc and where can it be found for minix.  As a side note
is it possible to recompile the minix using gcc or is it required
to compile it using bcc or something similar.

Thanks in advance to all who reply.

I bought OS:D&I about five years ago along with the disks, but now that I
have a Dell 310 (20 Mhz 386DX, 8MB, HD Floppies, and 104 MB HD) I can't
get it to install or even boot up! It maybe that the floppy is bad because
I get a disk error when I try to boot, but I'm willing to bet that it has
something to do with my new equipment. Is there a place on InterNet where
I can get an upgraded version that's compatible with my HW?

I propose not to do so, but instead do it in 2 steps. 
First go to 1.6.23, then add your stuff. See also below.

The mpx.s in atari 1.6.23 should be usable on the amiga I think.
I do not know the differences between the 1.6.23 and the official amiga
version, but there has been a moment when my version and the one from
Steven Reiz were identical.

Yes. However, perhaps you also want to change a few 
#if (MACHINE == ATARI)
into
#if (CHIP == M68000)
or the other way around.

That's also the reason why I prefer if you do not add all kinds of not
1.6.23 related changes. If all kind of local enhancements occur I have
to look at all your changes and decide if I think they should go into
the official version, or if they should qualify as 'local enhancements'.
I don't really like doing that. Too much chance making a mistake.

X-NewsSoftware: GRn 1.16f (10.17.92) by Mike Schwartz & Michael B. Smith

Organization: The Other Side of Life

Hello.  I am running AmigaMINIX 1.5.10.2 with Mark Newton's serial fixes
(which I doubt are involved here) and am having trouble with "last."

First, I'll start with an example of the output I get from last:
---- begin "bad" last output ----
root      tty3      Mon Nov  9 20:41   still logged in
jtidwell  tty1      Mon Nov  9 20:41 - ??:??  (00:00)
ast       tty2      Mon Nov  9 20:41 - ??:??  (00:00)
rlcarr    tty0      Mon Nov  9 20:41   still logged in
reboot    ~         ??? ??? ?? ??:?? 

wtmp begins ??? ??? ?? ??:?? 
---- end "bad" last output ----

As you can see, last cannot tell when /usr/adm/wtmp begins, and also it is
unable to compute logout times and the length of login.
What is more bizarre is that if I do
>/etc/utmp
>/usr/adm/wtmp
to clear out the accounting files, then last will properly report the
beginning time of wtmp, but *as soon as* a user logs in, the "wtmp begins"
line goes screwy, and again, logouts and login lengths are hosed.

As I am not terribly familiar with the format of utmp and wtmp files,
I was hoping that either someone has had this problem and has fixed and/or
could take a look at the utmp and wtmp files that were in existence when
the above output was created.  Since they are very small, I am enclosing
them here:
---- begin uuencoded utmp file ----

Does Minix for the Macintosh accomodate the vitual memory only
available do users with "Apple Style" PMMU op. interface?  Or
will it run under "Virtual" (third party...)

Hi there,

Does anyone know where I can get an iAPX 88 programming
book (assembly language for the 8088 processor)? I 
would also like to find a data sheet for the 8088 processor.

Thanks,

Which I would like to ask...
	 Does Macintosh Minix reside "Underneath" the Macintosh Multifinger?
This would SERIOUSLY degradate system performance, and I am looking for an op system to REPLACE my Mac op system (I rather dislike both the texture and the
efficiency.)
	Does Macintosh Minix take advantage of 68000 base memory protection
schemes and are there several different versions available for the various
Mac Computers?  I am running a Quadra 950.  What version should I puschase?
	I still don't understand why X won't compile, unless Minix and
Unix aren't completly object code compatible?  I heard that X_Windows
WILL run for the PD op system "Linux" for the PC?  What is the difference
in the architecture of the two operating systems...
	Does Minix accomodate virtual memory?  My Quadra has no trouble
with virtual memory (except it is SLOW.)  But my plus with an 030 upgrade
doesn't accomodate this without buying a product called "Virtual?"  I don't
see why Apple won't supply this for free, considering they are the twits
who discontinued the plus line originally.  And it took a THIRD party
to supply the upgrade kit.  The LEAST Apple could do is supply a virtual
memory driver capable of supporting several different PMMU board
architectures for the Plus.  In Sys. 7?  Its just Disabled...  I was hoping
that Macminix might have been a cure to both my operating system's
cosmetic and engine room architecure.

Thanks
