For an operating systems course I took last year, we used turboc for almost
all our work on modifying MINIX.  The teaching assistant, who has since graduated,
provided a great deal of support including ways to go from DOS to MINIX without
rebooting.  Because I was working on a clone which didn't have problems with
the long memory check, I never used them.  I always thought that he'd gleaned
the procedures and ideas from this newsgroup, but they must have been his own.
If anyone can get in touch with John Koepele and if he still remembers and is
interested (and I can't believe his enthusiasm has waned that much) a great deal
of time might be saved.
