Kind of short on details... Is this going to be some kind of highly optimized Hyper-V type environment with a customized Linux kernel? Is it going to still have full filesystem visibility from both operating systems? How? Will I still be able to run Window's binaries from a Linux command line? Will I be able to run all standard system daemons without hacks? (i.e. will init actually be systemd (or at least be replaceable with systemd or at least some Linux native init)).
