Lines: 13 Is there any limitation as to the SCSI disk drives MINIX can talk to. Most PC UNIX's cannot use the STO2 adaptor which costs only $ 35 or so and works fine with DOS. (The other SCSI adaptors cost around $200). How much disk space is good to use MINIX. Is 80 Meg OK for MINIX, GNUEmacs, DOS, latex (6 Meg in DOS), and Microsoft Windows.
