Hi,

I'm thinking about building a 25 MHZ 486 EISA system
with 8 MB of memory.  I plan to use either a Mylex 
or AMI motherboard. I'm also thinking about using 
an Adaptec 1542B SCSI adapter with a 200 MB Maxtor 
drive and some sort of SVGA adapter, maybe the Diamond 
SPEEDSTAR+ card.

My questions is does anyone out there have any experience 
with this configuration and/or  has run MINIX on an EISA
system. I want to know if there are any problems or 
good experiences with this proposed configuration with 
or without minix.

Sorry if this is an old question but I'm new to this group.

Todd.
