I tried (breifly) to get minix up on a Model D last weekend.  The machine
is fairly new and proclams that it has an extended video bios when it
self tests (I don't remember if the older D's do that or not).  Anyway,
it exhibits rather strange screen behavoir.  The screen will blank during
scrolling and will refuse to show anything until you have scrolled all
the way to the top, when everything you have typed shows up.  Strangely,
mined seems unaffected.
