We don't think it will be too hard, but we're both pretty busy, WHAT???? Do you have this system confused with IBM's toy PC (and clones)? The AT&T _Unix_ PC is named the Unix PC because it was designed to run a derivative of AT&T's SysVR2, which comes with the machine. Just curious; why would you want to port Minix to this system when you already have a better version of Unix running on it?
