Has anyone tried to run either Microport V/286 or SCO Xenix on a Mach-20 equipped PC? I have a very slow (80msec) 30M hard disk on my PC, but I think I could live with that until I get a 386 box with a fast hard disk. Any information you could provide me will be appreciated...todd -- Todd Ogasawara, U. of Hawaii Faculty Development Program UUCP: {ihnp4,uunet,ucbvax,dcdwest}!sdcsvax!nosc!uhccux!todd ARPA: uhccux!todd@nosc.MIL BITNET: todd@uhccux INTERNET: todd@uhccux.UHCC.HAWAII.EDU -- Send submissions to microport@uwspan with a Subject: line containing one of: 6300+, 386, 286, Bug, Source, Merge, "Send Buglist", or "Send Version" For info, mail to microport@uwspan with "Send Info" as the Subject:.
