Hello everyone,

I am attempting to cross compile minix using microsoft C. All commands (as
many as I checked) seem to work but I cannot 'build'. I narrowed the field
to menu and kernel. I am now conctrating on menu, and it seems very odd.

On the surface it looks as if this (menu.c+menu1.s) is a simple interrogation
program, but if contains a lot of unused stuff: brk, initvarv(), get_partition()
read_partition() and maybe more. It this program halfway through beeing changed,
or do I have an odd version (I am on 1.5.9 and CRCs look ok) or is this all some
forgotten leftovers from the middle ages?
