Hello,

I've read the message from Glen Overby stating the use of Andrew Cagney's
upgrade kit to make a Minix 1.5 version starting from version 1.3. I'm very
interested in this upgrade possibility. Can anybody give me a hint of how
to download this update? Which command should I mail to plains.nodak.edu at
what "user". I think I'm on bitnet.
