QNX is able to be a successful MicroKernel, but why NOT GNUMach / OSKITMach / L4Mach ? So, what could be the problem with GNU Microkernels ? QNX is using GNU tools and they are successful. Where we are lacking ? coding style / documentation / info on creating a MicroKernel ? QNX don't have partition limitation like we have with ext2. Even device driver is also implemented without any problem...
QNX is non-free, so it is not successful in our eyes. You also confuse Mach with the Hurd, GNU Mach does not have such limits, it is the Hurd that has the >2GB limit. User-space device drivers haven't been implemented because nobody has implemented them, this is all a volunteer project, we work in our spare time and pick what we find interesting/important/etc. Cheers! _______________________________________________ Help-hurd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-hurd
