MINT = Mint Is Now TOS

MINT is a lean multitasking Operating System for the Atari distributed by Atari Corporation along with the Falcons. MINT runs on ST to the latest ColdFire, but a high-end machine is required for best performance.

MINT continues as Open Source and being developed by a bunch of Atari enthusiast. To distinguish between the MINT which Atari distribute, this updated MINT is distributed as FreeMINT. Current public release of FreeMINT is version 1.17 (Dec 2010). There are controlled release versions 1.18 available from the daily build repository.

SpareMINT is a RPM based FreeMint distribution. This gives MINT many UNIX like capabilities including Apache Webserver, Samba, FTP and many more excellent UNIX ports.
