  • MINIX 3 is a project to create a small, highly reliable and functional Unix-like operating system. It is published under the BSD license. The main goal of the project is for the system to be fault-tolerant by detecting and repairing its own faults on the fly, without user intervention. The main uses of the operating system are envisaged to be embedded systems as well as the education sector, such as universities or the XO-1 laptop. MINIX 3 currently supports IA-32 architecture PC compatible systems. It is also possible to run MINIX under emulators or virtual machines, such as Bochs, VMware Workstation, Microsoft Virtual PC, and QEMU. Ports to the PowerPC and ARM architectures are in development. The distribution comes on a Live CD and also can be downloaded as a USB stick image.
