Boschma) ... That seems to be the general opinion... How goes 1.6 ? Will there be a '532 release when its stable ? (Lives in hope :) I expect that there will be a pc532 release. When? I don't know Although its not the right place to ask, will 1.6 have job control ? This one has been a "hot" topic on comp.os.minix. The official word from AST is that Minix will NEVER, NEVER, NEVER* have job control. For job control, you will need BSD4.4 (ported to the pc532) or Hurd (GNU's os) on top of the Mach 3.0 port. What fun! --Phil
