README.txt for the Minix-on-Bochs image. 

After installing Bochs 2.1.1, this directory should be installed as 
C:\Program Files\Bochs 2.1.1\minix204. 

This is based on the DOSMinix version of Minix 2.0.4. The  FIX.TAZ
updates of Nov 30, 2003 are installed. Both standard and networked 
Minix system files are included. You can run the non-networked version
with the supplied minix.bxrc configuration file as is. You will have 
to edit minix.bxrc to enable networking and to use virtual or physical
floppy disks and CD-ROMs. See the comments in minix.bxrc. 

Read the Minix on Bochs on Windows How-to included here in the Howto
directory or online at http://minix1.hampshire.edu/faq/bxmxhowto.html
