[OpenIndiana-discuss] OpenIndiana on Minix Z83-4 Pro (Cherry Trail) ?

[Jerry Kemp]

referencing this small system here.





wondering if anyone has explored this box to install OpenIndiana on.

Not looking to exploit video or audio, or even wireless ethernet capability, but for use just as a small, self contained box w/4 Gb 
ram to run console/curses based applications.


Thank,

Jerry

I think we need a feature like the one described below:

Currently, sys/segments.h defines things related to LDT.
