- HELP!!!
-
- I have been trying to upgrade from Minix 1.1. I have
- downloaded the two kits from bugs.nosc.mil which
- should allow me to get to 1.3, but the 1.2 - 1.3
- isn't quite complete (corrupt tar file).
-
- so I am currently at Minix 1.2
-
-
- I have found the following
- (I am using E-mail, not anon-ftp)
-
- on plains.nodak.edu
- sub-dir
- /pub/Minix/updates
-
- links named
- pc1.2 -> /src/mess/minix/updates/pc1.2
- pc1.3 -> /src/mess/minix/updates/pc1.3
- pc1.5 -> /src/mess/minix/updates/pc1.5
-
- I have tried to retrieve these as files, but get
- error messages about no such file.
- So, then I tried cd into them, but error messages
- are all I got back.
-
- Can anyone help?, either with how to access these
- or with the location of sutable upgrade kits.
