I want to install minix on PC/AT.I have Minix 1.3 distribution on 360k floppies.I have never done this kind of thing before but I want to learn to do it.I have some idea that I would need to configure the hard disk, partition it etc. Can any one send me an e_mail telling me the steps of installation and any tips.Also please tell what might go wrong during installation and how to fix it. I would appreciate it. Please send me email directly. Thanks. Hashmi.
