not log into the ftp server to download addon packages.  Any

suggestions on how to get pkgin to work on 3_2_1.  And have

I have studied the web documentation.

Thank you

Personally, Minix 3.2.1 does not work for me on Virtual Box 7 on a Debian Linux 12 amd64 host.  I get a fatal error trying to start the Minix vm after Minix is installed.

However, Minix 3.1.0, 3.1.6, 3.3.0, and 3.4rc6 work for me on Virtual Box.   And I have Minix 3.4rc6 running on my laptop bare metal; however, lately it is built from minix 3 git master plus some of my own changes.

I would verify that internet is working.  Use ifconfig to see if you have a valid ip address and use nslookup pkgin.net

Use it to look up minix3.org

I tried to figure out how to change a path to a different repository in pkgin but I could not.

Also, check to make sure that curl is installed on the system.

Thank you for your comments.  I will write more to make later....I am using

Virtual bo 7.0.12 under windows 10.  I had no problems execept for the

network adapter.  I switched to bridged and that solved the problem

I will catch later with more information.

cheers
