Here is a list of machines on which MINIX has been tried.
If you have tried it on others, please post the results.

Machine			Does MINIX run?		Hard disk ok? (? = not tested)
_______			_______________		_______________
Amstrad			yes			no
Commodore PC-20 II	yes			yes
Compaq Deskpro		yes			?
Compaq Deskpro 286	yes			?
IBM PC-AT (6 MHz)	yes			yes
IBM PC-AT (8 MHz)	yes			no
IBM PC-XT 		yes			yes (10 MB disk)
IMC (Taiwan)		yes			?
ITT XTRA		yes			?
Kaypro PC		yes			?

Shitel 			no
Tandy 1000		no
Toshiba 1100+		yes			?
Zenith Z-150		yes			no
Zenith Z-248		yes			yes but see note 1

Note 1: The hard disk drivers in the distribution can't hack drives that have
        an odd number of sectors per cylinder because this splits a 1K MINIX
        block over two cylinders.  A fix is being worked on.
