What is MintDesk??
MintDesk is the (development, Beta release) MiNT version of TeraDesk.
What is TeraDesk??
You don't know??? Where have you been??? TeraDesk is the greatest
replacement desktop for the Atari ST(e)/TT/Falcon range of computers!!
What do you need??
An Atari computer (or perhaps a gemulator), MiNT (tested only with
MiNT 1.10, with the addroottimeout patch) and to make things look
good a Minix file system (tested with version 0.60 PL 10) or
something else which supports long filenames with lotsa dots and
stuff..... (ramfs.xfs)
What is MiNT??
The 'new' mulitasking kernel of the Atari operating system. If you
do not use MiNT, MintDesk will not be of any use to you (read: it
will not work).
How does it work??
It functions in the same way as TeraDesk (V1.40 or there about). I
refer to the documentation supplied with TeraDesk for an in deapth
anser to this question....
READ THE FOLLOWING NOTES!!!!
- Read the readme file!!!
