Some new features include: >- Minix can use all A3000 32-bit fastmem. We achieved this by increasing the CLICK_SIZE from 512 bytes to 4096 bytes. One side effect of this change is that some small programs, e.g. ls, which was chmem-ed to 8192 bytes, will have to be chmem-ed to a bigger value. 16384 should probably be enough to fix all problems. So, if a program doesn't work correctly, try chmem +8192 . Just thought I'd mention it, so that you'll all know that it's a feature, not a bug :-) Regards, Steven Reiz
