I always wondered about the posibility of running Minix 386 under a vm86 session. Today I tried to run Minix 386 with doscmd using FreeBSD-3.4R. While the monitor went well at first, when I tried to load Minix the following message appeared: Loading Minix 2.0.0 You can't run a 386 kernel on this 80286 AFAIK, a vm86 session is not restricted to 286 instructions and shouldn't report this lie. Furthermore, Minix 386 runs well on protected mode. I'll investigate if the Microsoft Diagnostics report the same and I'll file a PR. The doscmd session continued well until I exited the monitor: fd0>exit ________________________________________ Signal 4 from DOS program ax=8600 bx=fe50 cx=f5eb dx=3f65 si=6457 di=0000 sp=91c9 bp=91ee cs=91ca ss=96e0 ds=96e0 es=1af6 ip=acdd eflags=b0a92 ff ff ff 00 88 00 00 ff ff ff ff 00 8c 00 00 ff (bad) 91ca:acdd Illegal instruction ________________________________________ When ESC, ls and finally exit is given: ________________________________________ (missed) OUTSB -> 0x647b (missed) OUTSW -> 0x647b ax=ff00 bx=22ca cx=ff22 dx=649d si=6456 di=0000 sp=91cc bp=91ee cs=2032 ss=96e0 ds=96e0 es=fffb ip=ffff eflags=b0202 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 addb %al,(%bx+%si) unsupported instruction ________________________________________ cheers, Pedro.
