I ran MINIX v1.3(it supported the 8086 and was a precursor to LINUX)
on my PC Transporter. I only had access to the 5.25 and 3.5" drives.
I never did get the HD working with it. The source came with MINIX
also. I remember I had to modify it to work with the 3.5" drive.
It worked fine otherwise.

I've read that Linux requires at least a 386. And, no, the V30 is not
the same as a 286, it's an enhanced version of the 8086.

Hello Apple fans,
I own an AE PC Transporter card which I pulled out of my GS to keep it
cool. Not knowing what to do with a Apple-PC clone of AT(NEC V30 =
'286 ?) class, I just had the weird idea of installing a minimal LINUX
box (text only, shell and basic command set). That way, I could say I
run Linux on my GS and have a floppy disk conversion station
(PC-apple-Mac). Anybody tried that or am I just going nuts?
Cheers!
