On the 25th August 1991 the following message appeared on the newsgroup * comp.os.minix*:
*Hello everybody out there using minix- * *I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big and professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones. This has been brewing since april, and is starting to get ready. I'd like any feedback on things people like/dislike in minix; as my OS resembles it somewhat (same physical layout of the file-sytem due to practical reasons)among other things. * *I've currently ported bash (1.08) an gcc (1.40), and things seem to work. This implies that i'll get something practical within a few months, and I'd like to know what features most people want. Any suggestions are welcome, but I won't promise I'll implement them :-) * *Linus Torvalds [EMAIL PROTECTED] * *Happy Birthday Linux!!!* Ramon Casha
