- No, but I do have MP/M running on my DECmate. To get Minix up, you'd have
- to be willing to write a lot of drivers. In the case of MP/M, I have a
- minimal XIOS that in most cases jumps to the CP/M BIOS. You might be able
- to hack up a similar arrangement for Minix, but I'm not sure how you would
- prevent Minix from walking all over the memory used by DOS.
