Installing minix3 on ubuntu
Tue 24 October 2006
Install minux on
Ok so I struggled to get Minix3 installed on ubuntu.
This is how I did it:
$sudo modprobe tun
$sudo modprobe kqemu
$sudo tunctl
Create a Disk Image
$qemu-img create -f qcow minux.img 2G
Install the minix distribution
$qemu -localtime -net user -net nic -m 128 -cdrom IDE-3.1.2a.iso -hda minux.img -boot d
Shutdown
boot the new image
` shutdown
$qemu -localtime -net user -net nic -m 128 -cdrom IDE-3.1.2a.iso -hda minux.img -boot `
det the network card in the minix enviroment
qemu_pci=1
save boot
Then install the packages by `
$qemu -localtime -net user -net nic -m 128 -cdrom /dev/cdrom -hda minux.img -boot c
`
