I have installed Minix on a XT-type PC but when I upgraded to a 286 motherboard
I could no longer run Minix. I've tried all 3 boot disks with no luck. I keep
getting a message saying:

	Unexpected interrupt along vector >= 17
	process number -6, pc = 0xc800:0x0000011D

	Kernel panic: exception in kernel, mm, or fs

I have a RLL type harddrive, herc. graphics adaptor, 2 serial ports and 2
parallel ports. 1 meg RAM.  Any help and advice would be appreciated.
