Destoyed DISK 5 of PH 1.5 Distribution Message-ID: Date: 22 Jun 91 05:19:43 GMT Distribution: usa Organization: Rutgers University Lines: 33 I destoyed my /usr install disk and I can't bring enough of Minix up to recompile the utilities I'm missing from it. I have been helped by one person but we are not having much success. Someone offered to make me a copy of their 3.5" /usr install disk but they required paper work I can't produce (Cancelled Check of purchase or Billing Notice). I have lost your E-mail address if you see this message. I would like your help but the best I can do is mail you the original disk that got trashed and the original Manual as proof that I do own a LEGAL copy of the PH 1.5 Minix distribution. If anyone else can help me by sending a 3.5" copy of that one disk (Provided it's legal to do so) I will be most appreciative. Otherwise anyone who can provide me with a way to perhaps purchase the one disk (it's worth a shot). I can't afford to spend another $160 on another complete set. Any help is appreciated. Thanx. srm BTW Excuse an old fool for not heeding the warnings of making backup copies. As I write I'm planning the backup of the other intact diskettes. Thanx again. -- Scott R.
