I don't know exactly how many architectures does netbsd run, but Linux seems to support arches that netbsd doesn't, like: 64 bit MIPS, PPC 970 (available in netbsd but not yet integrated i think), Cell, S390, M32R, Nec v850, frv, cris?, xtensa, mmuless cpus (apparently there're lots of mmuless cpus), Itanium (netbsd development ongoing) Sure, Linux doesn't support vax and the like, but it does support lots of architectures that matter. In http://netbsd.org/Ports/#ports-by-cpu there's a more Linux-like view of the architectures supported. Although Netbsd people will argue that porting a architecture to Linux is more difficult and that Linux gets support just because there's a lot of $$$ around it. Anyway, even if Linux wasn't the OS with more architectures supported it'd be the _second_ on the list. Which is quite impressive anyway, and nothing to be ashamed of. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
