Do you really need just a JVM and a Kernel? You must need a filesystem too. How do you connect to a database?

- mike_hearn 11y agoFilesystems run inside kernels (normally).
- pron 11y agoVery true, although technically I'm not sure the JVM requires a filesystem. The class loader for application classes is a URLClassLoader that can load classes over the network, so the only problem is the boostrap class-loader, and I'm sure that could be taken-care-of, too (might require a JNI wrapper).
