How is this being implemented? I know Solaris did it by running an entire copy of Red Hat in a virtual machine, which isn't really supporting the LSB ABIs IMO. If you're actually supporting the LSB ABIs in the system root that would be cool (but the easiest way of doing it would be using glibc). This stuff could be really interesting to work on, get Sun to make the license GPL compatible and you'll see people in Debian interested in working on it. -- Matt Taggart [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
