Very tricky! There could be just one gem task (and YUR favourite program
will probably not run under the new enviroment... )

>then I think MINIX should be first on the list since:

As far as I know (don't have Minix right now), Minix is no speed demon
(wha do You exspect from an operating system written in C?).
It could be build anew (in Assembler of course), but that will take some
time... (and will not be portable anymore).

First have a look at it.

I like OS/9 pretty much (run it on an 020 VME BUS machine) and would
like to have it on my ST at home as well...
