- Hi there,
-
- Has anyone ever heard of Minix running on a Zenith Z-100
- (circa 1985)? I received one of these computers when I
- entered college and it's just been collecting dust lately.
- I'm pretty sure that it has an 8086 and an 8080A processor
- in it. I can run CP/M as well as a modified MSDOS called
- ZDOS. It has 2 floppy drives (low-density) and 768k of
- memory?
-
- Assuming it is not ported, can anyone tell me how to go
- about doing it? Would getting a technical reference to the
- Z-100 be my first step?
-
- Thanks for any info.
