How to install minix 3.2.1 on Hyper-V 6.3.96

[Salih KARAHAN]

Hi,

I can't install minix 3.2.1 on Hyper-V. Can you show step by step how to install?

I want to study c / c++ on minix. Help me please.

As far as I know MINIX has not been tested on Hyper V so I wouldn't recommend it. Instead I would recommend installing VMWare Player and following the instructions on the Wiki: http://wiki.minix3.org/UsersGuide/RunningOnVmware

Where are you stuck?

Hyper-V is clearly designed to deal with server-kind systems, so in term
of user interface it is the opposite of user-friendly; for example,
there is no console. Unless you are designing some kind of integration,
like building stacks of MINIX systems, you'll better served with
"workstation-like" virtualizers, like VMware Player as Eric suggested.
Particularly if your goal is to study the system...
