Summary: Minix "works" on a 6300+

> Minix won't boot on 6300+.  Quits at the time /etc/rc is supposed to run.

I had identical experience on an ATT 6300+ when using the AT 1.2 meg
disks on drive A, a 1.2meg unit.

I then tried the disks formatted for the PC (360k) and Minix booted just fine!
I did not get to try the hard disk.

I tried to mount a FS on drive B (a 360k)  and could not.
The same FS would mount nicely on the 1.2meg unit.  (Curious???)

I have not tried any patches except an early one on the 1.2meg set.  I forget
the purpose of that patch, but it did not good at all.
