Hi!

I am new to minix (2.0.2 for 286) and tried to install it on an old
IBM PS/2 Model 30/286 .
The problem is: minix does not detect the harddisk controller in that
machine. I don't know the type of that controller, but I suppose it's
some special IDE-compatible implementation.

Second question:
Can XFree86 be compiled under Minix?
Would be cool to use the old PS/2 as X terminal...

regards
Steffen
