Has any one any experience with 80386 machines, a tower ? machine. We know they have a different DMA controller and so MINIX will need some porting to get it working. We need to know how reliably other PC cards will work on it. e.g. WD ethernet card and the JT Fax cards (or other Fax cards). Any other comments welcome.
