Trying to fix several issues:
-- Minix 2.0.4: has some weird issues around IRQ handling.
+- Minix 2.0.4: has some weird issues around IRQ handling. It gets stuck
+ in readclock (I suspect after every IRQ, because it happens also when
+ using sleep - which needs a hardware clock interrupt - and when printing
+ to serial). The CF uses _no_ interrupt, this explains why Minix 2 is
+ booting at all.
# things known to work
- DOS 6.22 with mTCP network stack and a NE2000 Kinston card
+- Mini 1.7 boots and runs just fine
- Booting XT-IDE serially with DOS image
+- Booting Minix 2.0 over serial using the Linux version of serdrive
+ from XT-IDE
