USA Lines: 15 I just purchased MINIX for the ATARI ST and think I may have a problem with the disks. I purchased it from Prentice-Hall. Of the 9 disks, only the one marked 08.TOS can be read from the desktop. Is this normal? If so, can I still make back-up copies? Some of the disks when I open them, show no files, others show greek-like characters for file names, and the number of bytes is larger than is possible to get on a floppy disk. Are my disks bad? Should I contact Prentice-Hall about it? Any help would sure be appreciated. -- ############################################################# # PRIVATE # SAC-UNIX, Sacramento, Ca. # # PARKING # UUCP=...pacbell!sactoh0 # #############################################################
