I had a question about:
"Global file system
In Unix, there is a global root file system"
Why night this be seen as a shortcoming, especially with mount namespaces now? Can anyone say?

- jayd16 8y agoI think the point is that things like namespaces are so good the OS should be built from the ground up with that in mind, not as a bolted on feature where a global root remains but is hidden.
