Thanks to the postings of various individuals to comp.os.minix I now have
MINIX 1.1 up on my IBM PC/AT hard disk.  I have two partitions one for
MINIX (/dev/hd1) and one for PC/DOS.  My root file system has been migrated
to /dev/hd1 and I now boot off of "BOOT DISK" and "=" directly to my root
file system on hard disk.  If anyone wants tips on how to do this please
send me e-mail and I'll try to help out as much as I can.

One thing I have not been able to get to work is fsck off of the boot diskette
for /dev/hd1.  fsck works fine off of floopy.  Does anyone have suggetstions
for getting fsck to check my hard disk file system?

My configuration is IBM PC/AT, 640K RAM, 30MByte hard disk (732 cyls., 1-150
is MINIX, 151-731 is PC/DOS, 0 is bootblock).

Thanks in advance,
Brian P. O'Halloran
