As I wrote, I was beta testing PAX 2.0 and the diffs were relative to the first beta release. I have never seen another official version from Mark Colburn. If there is official PAX 2.0 source, I would be happy to redo any changes that are still necessary - I just haven't seen it. If someone can point me to it, I will post the necessary diffs. Failing an official release, I think I can do no more than offer to mail a copy of the message detailing the changes required by Minix that I sent to Mark. Whether this would do anyone any good is an open question. Norbert
