Most standard undergraduate operating systems courses teach theory and concepts, without exposing students to the detailed internal operation or source code of an actual operating system. Tanenbaum's MINIX operating system is designed to give students "hands-on" experience with the internals of an operating system in order to illustrate the theory and concepts. This paper describes the use of MINIX in an operating systems laboratory at the University of Vermont.
