I'm finally getting around to trying to run Minix on a sun386i.

It have a Minix 1.3 system on 5 1/4 inch disks.  What steps do I need to
take to get it to boot on a sun386i.  

I have a little DOS hack which reads a binary 5 1/4 AT disk image and moves
it onto a DOS file system as a single file (this was convenient for putting
the source code on the sun -- i.e. read in the file system on DOS and then
run readfs on the disk image on the sun's hard disk).

I've tried copying the boot disk onto a 3 1/2 floppy, but it isn't working
and I figure I have to do something, don't know what yet.  Any clues?
