No hace falta llevar al palmtop DUBS.HTM, DUBS.TXT, DUBSLETR.TXT, MBOOT1.JPG, MIN4.GIF, MIN5C.JPG, MINIX.TXT, MINIX1.HTM y 10 más: son manuales, código fuente o material de apoyo. Léelos aquí y ahórrate 281.9 KB en un disco de 1 MB.

1. Copia PUT13.EXE, WINI200.EXE, CARDIO.EXE, BOOT.BAT a A:\SOFT. Son programas de DOS: se ejecutan desde el icono DOS, o añadiendo A:\SOFT al PATH de C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT para poder llamarlos por su nombre.
2. Copia VECT13.DAT a A:\_DAT, que es donde el 200LX busca la configuración. Ábrelo con Memo y ajústalo antes de usarlo.
3. Si editas un fichero de configuración en el palmtop, asegúrate de dejar un salto de línea al final: hay programas que se comen la última línea sin avisar.

Deducido del contenido del paquete y de las convenciones del 200LX. Se instala en A: a propósito: C: es un disco RAM y cada byte ahí resta memoria al sistema.

install and boot MINIX (for hackers only at this point) -
on a web page (TBD) so that the Internet community can
have access. Then I will announce my accomplishment to
the MINIX and HP Palmtop newsgroups.  I have already done
the hard (PC Card) part; therefore, I am betting that
before too long, we will have the working version we
desire from the Internet community; the memory drivers
for the 32M RAM should follow shortly thereafter.  I
expect that LINIX-86 on the HP200 will become a reality
about the same time.

As I stated in my original e-mail; I have reached the
point of diminishing returns with my MINIX project and am
ready to move on to other challenges - I do not plan on
doing further development right now and that is why I am
ready to turn the project over to the Internet community.

I'll keep you posted on my progress.

Rich,

Yes, _I'd_ be very interested in an article describing
what you've accomplished. I've often wondered why someone
hadn't tackled this sooner.
I even considered tackling it myself, but my Unix career
stopped about the same time that CP\M hit the market.
 It would be better if PTP could make an announcement of
a working version of Minix or Linux on the 8086.  With
double speed and 32MB it would be  "coup de compute"  to
our readers who are in the UNIX community. What would you
need to finish the task? Do you have a copy of the
Developer's Guide for the 200LX?
For our readers, most of whom are more interested in
applications than operating systems, the article will
need to answer  questions such as "what does Minix let me
do that I can't already do with the LX?  e.g. will it let
