Minix
This directory and subdirectories contains several versions of MINIX, a
small UNIX-like system for IBM PC's and compatibles. The prime
objective of Minix is education. Major parts of it can be studied and
understood by one person in a limited amount of time. Minix is a
redesign, using a modern microkernelish setup.
Minix is free for educational use only, read the Minix license-to-use at
the end of this file. You have to agree to its terms if you want to use
this software.

announcement - The announcement by Andy in comp.os.minix
vmd - VMD Minix, a souped up version of Minix offering
virtual memory, X11, etc. (The online version is

map for now)
