The changes I have made to MacMinix do not save after quitting. I set up a
couple users, and their directories and such, even changed passwords. It
was suggested to me that I should write the changes to the disk rather
than to RAM. How do you suggest I do this? 

I have four files in my MacMinix folder: MacBoot, Root, Root-small and 
USER. I have a PwoerBook 140 with 6 megs of ram, 40 meg hard drive. I 
can't run USER because their is not enough memory. Do I have to start 
from Root?

Thanks for the help!
