I don't think it's possible without providing the linux kernel with its own virtual machine (a la VMWare itself). Linux and the BSD kernel will conflict in various areas over which both want to have control; this starts with virtual memory and procedes with the various device drivers. >This way we basically achive 95% linux compatibility, which How did you calculate the 95%? >make freebsd also a perfect workstation (for now it makes >a perfect server, but linux is better as workstation because >of the support from software companies). This is preposterous argumentation. Most real workstations don't run Linux. Do you consider them to be imperfect as well compared to a Gnu/Linux PC? FreeBSD makes a perfect workstation for me. Please limit your statements to yourself next time when they're obviously subjective. mkb To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
