I've been hearing some rumours lately about a MINIX version that can use
more than one segment on a 286 in protected mode.

Anyone got any pointers? I always heard that it wasn't impossible, but
that a major rewrite of MM was nessecary and the performance would probably
suffer (a lot).

						Bye Arno.
