MINIX isn't dead on my machine!  I just brought it up.  Now I've got lots
of questions.

(1) If I compile/assemble MINIX straight out of the box, I get no errors.
    (I use the make file provided and generate the distribution code with
     the DEBUG but no OMTI flag).

(2) I load the code into memory and set it up to run it just as though I
    were booting minix for the first time.  I set up the dwords for the
    ram disk and set the breakpoint at the proper address (verified against
    minix.nm)

(3) The Program starts out fine, but barfs when it hits the breakpoint.  I get
    a ">" prompt and the machine is frozen.  I have to press the reset button
    *three times* (this is consistent) to reset the machine.

Has anyone seen this problem before?

On a related topic, what, exactly, do I have to do to apply the hybrid 1.5
diffs.  I tried running patch as follows:
    patch -p0 <fs_cd 
while inside the fs directory.  Things choked.  I got a weird error message
that said "R.: no found" or something like that.  Any comments?

Last question:  I get a bus error when running certain programs (compress is
a big problem).  Is tthis a memory parity error?
Thanks
