Well if your consider Berkely Unix 4.4 a really maxed out version of
MINIX...the answer is YES sort of.  In around 3-4 months Berkeley is
releasing the full 4.4 dist into the public domain.  There is no AT&T
code in it.  It will be running the mach kernel.  Matt Dillon has
personally sworn to convert it over to the Amiga once the sources are
released.  If it can be done, Matt can do it.
