I have upgraded from an IBM PC to an IBM PS/2 Model 80. I have Minix 1.3. I used COPYIIPC to copy my 5 1/4 inch diskettes to 3 1/2 inch format. When I boot Minix on the Model 80 the boot message comes up fine. Then I place the root file system disk in and press "=" and the computer locks up. Could someone tell me what I need to do to get up and running? Please reply be email to: justict@mist.cs.orst.edu Thank you.
