Yes.

Now I'd like to know as soon as someone finds out if MINIX will run
on the sidecar.  From what I heard MINIX requires an IBM PC or hardware
compatible clone.  Is the sidecar compatible enough for MINIX?

Sure I'd love to see UNIX on the Amiga, but if I can get UNIX on
the sidecar now, I'll buy the sidecar instead of the hard disk I've
been saving for.
