Are you referring to this: http://www.scyld.com/products/beowulf/software/monte.htmlIf you really want to get crazy you can UserMode Linux, and run Linux in Linux. Then not only can you create chroot jails, but honeypots as well. :) Mmmm... Don't you just love the power linux offers you. Multiboot systems, systems within systems, kernels running in virtual machines within other kernels, does it get any better? Yeah, how about being able replace your kernel without rebooting? Then we could see some real uptime magic. :)

Because my understanding is that you still have to re-init everything, so you lose all your running processes. All these seem to do is avoid a hard reset and BIOS functions. I have never tried them, so I don't know.
Does two kernel monte really allow running processes to be preserved across the kernel swap?
