At this point I don't have any ST users with my beta test copy of
68K protected memory changes for minix. If you have an ST with a 68030 and
are willing to give my changes a try, send me mail. I will send out the
changes as soon as I get your message.

I have been using the updated kernel for more than 2 weeks without a
single problem :-)

Sorry to disapoint you but there is no (Atari) ST with a 68030 processor.
They all come with an 68000 (8MHz or 16MHz).
Atari Corp. called the followup system TT (68030 32MHz)
So if you can find some beta testers with that you can be satisfied.

Hope this cleared things up a bit.

Wrong!

Right.

Atari Inc. does not deliver STs with anything else than a M68k, _BUT_
so many STs have been upgraded to 68020/6888[12] w/o 68581 or 68030/688882...
They run a modified TOS, KA_OS, RTOS, OS9, VxWorks, someone claimed to have
ported a BSD2.xxx (no typo: _two_)....

best regards, adams
