Unfortunately, there are not very many applications for minix, and the installation is primarily manual. I also believe (last I checked), it is not free. I hate to say it, but you might be best off using DOS. Being a responsible Linux geek also requires admiting areas where Linux probably wouldn't be so hot... DOS is the only thing old enough to fit confortably inside of 60MB, and there is no shortage of applications available for it. (I guess there's even a DOS web browser now! Who knew!) Not that Linux couldn't fit - just that it wouldn't be very fun with less than 60MB of applications... -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- What the president of the Motion Picture Association of America says about taking away your constitutional rights: "I'm rather jubilant now.
