About a week ago I asked everyone with amiga minix running
on an amiga with more than 512 kb CHIP ram to add the -n $080000
option to the line calling minix in the boot:s/startup-sequence,
and let me know if this solved a very serious problem with minix.

I've received about ten replies so far, thank you guys!
The replies were all positive, although the fix didn't solve all
problems. In the mean time I've rewritten the minix loader and
changed the minix kernel a little, this new loader/image combination
is currently being tested. When we're satisfied with the testing results
on various system configurations I will post the source and binaries
here.

Greetings,
