TechHeart [me!] posted another video this weekend... still enjoying the Dolch PAC-60 486/DX66 machine and MS-DOS completely packed with softwarez... so, we take a left turn and jimmy Minix 2.0.4 on the machine. It was fun, and interesting to [finally] experience Minux - the OS designed by Andrew Tenenbaum only b/c AT&T was breathing down his, and other professors, necks telling them they couldn't continue teaching Unix to students... without Minux, Linus may have never gotten the bug to develop Linux - what would the world be like built on top of FreeBSD rather than Linux??? We'll never know - because of all these pioneers...

For now, watch an amateur figure out how to finesse the OS onto hardware that most humans have forgotten about - but is still teaching me in 2024. Come along, if yer ok with YT...
