Nonsense. Embedded applications work directly on top of a kernel. > GNU is one operating system that works with Linux, More nonsense. Operating systems certainly require a kernel (in fact, the standard Computer Science definition pretty much covers _only_ the kernel unless we are talking Microkernel-based systems). GNU without kernel is not an operating system. Not even in RMS' terminology (who calls the whole of GNU/Linux a variant GNU system). > and there are some embedded versions too. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
