Just wanted to report that I was able to run MINIX on a Kaypro PC.
I also ran it on an IBM XT which has a Microsoft Mach 10 card (10Mhz 8086)
installed.  The Kaypro has a CGA card and the IBM an EGA and both
had the problem with strange screen characters while scrolling which
has already been described.

The Kaypro machine has 768K of memory, the extra 128K being addressed
at paragraph D000h or something like that.  If someone with a 768K machine
figures out how to write a RAM disk driver which can use this memory
I would love to see it.
