Good news, I got my minix system back.

Well, it is not that sick after all.

Jon made these available on ftp://jdl.com/pub/PC532/. I slapped
the fs (min532) onto my disk, booted one of my images and restored
the system. I will now keep this image around.

I did not use Jon's system image.

So thanks everyone, especially Jon. I am happy to know that I have
a disk configured with minix (it is only 200mb in size but back then I
could not believe how much space that miniscribe 380mb had! Today,
I cannot believe how expensive it was, but it is still going).
