	Hi

	I am in the process of upgrading my Minix System.

	I have successfully upgraded to 1.5.10 and I have tried to
build Minix 386 with Bruce Evans' 32 bits kernel.

	Almost everything works well but I have encoutered a few
little problems :
	- ps causes a 'Memory fault - core dumped' error,
	- elvis 1.3 crashes with the same error when called with
a file name as argument (e.g. vi Makefile). Il I call elvis
without argument, it works well but I have to use the 'r' command
to load the file I want to edit. This problems does not happen
when I use elvis 1.1.
	- I can't rebuild the kernel if I am in 32 bits mode
because bcc does not contain a separate C pre-processor with
kernel/Makefile could call to translate .x files to .s files.

	Has anyone the solution for these problems ?

	Thanks by advance,
