I am currently trying to find a Unix OS for an Intel 286 machine. I have tried a number of OS's, including Minix (Shows Booting Minix 1.5 prompt, then garbage), Linux (Seems to be CPU Specific. Does nothing), Xenix (Also seems to be CPU Specific. Runs to the Insert Floppy FileSystem prompt, then reboots the system.) I have also tried SCO Unix, which does the same thing as Linux. (Nothing!) Please, help me out. Any responses should be made to scott@vulpus.atl.ga.us. Much thanks in advance. Scott
