Has anyone out there got Minix running on the Compaq Portable II?
I tried running Minix on the machine, but while it was trying to
load the ram disk from floppy, I got an unexpected trap error.
From the messages I received the last time I enquired about this,
it doesn't seem that my Hardcard 20 is causing the trap.  Is it
possible Minix isn't correctly trapping something on this machine?
It is an 80286 machine, but is it AT compatible or is it XT compatible?
