Re: UNIX for Amiga? Anyone tried it?

I have used MINIX, NetBSD, Linux (Debian), and Amiga's UNIX AMIX on different models. The fastest and bestest(haha) is Minix. Check it ot at The Amiga MINIX Page. It is only text based, but it is good enough to get the feeling of a UNIX system.

[EDIT] I will try to locate the MINIX 1.5 disks on the Internet and include the link in this post. MINIX for the Amiga will run on the following.

    * The harddisk driver works with the A590, A2091 and A3000.
    * MINIX can use all A3000 32-bit fastmem.
    * MINIX runs on 68000, 68010, 68020 and 68030 processors.

[EDIT] MINIX 2.0 did not come out for the Amiga. For the complete MINIX 1.5 Disk Images, Documentation, and updates to 1.5.10.2  use this link Aminet's Search for MINIX
- People who hate Windows use Linux but people who love UNIX use BSD.
- Never forget the AMIGA. No computer in history ever made such a big step forward.
