They break minix 1.5.5 patch. At present, if you wish to use the patches go a head but remember that you will first need to copy the minix source across to a big machine before you start applying the patches. I'm looking at different ways of creating the patches so that they *will* work under minix. Several other problems have been reported but none as anoying as this. Andrew Cagney.
