I was considering adding Linux compatibility to my system. After looking thru the handbook, I noticed that this can be done as a loadable kernel module. I looked in the lkm directory and noticed the linux object file. Why is using an lkm better than using a statically compiled kernel? Vice versa? What are the issues at stake? Thanks, Jason Wells
