- nickpsecurity 11y agoI have no idea. I discovered this researching secure OS work such as Flask. It does have plenty of documentation [1]. Maybe that will help you. [1] http://www.cs.utah.edu/flux/oskit/html/oskit-www.html http://www.cs.utah.edu/flux/oskit/html/oskit-www.html
- justincormack 11y agoYou can use the NetBSD drivers for other operating systems pretty easily - see http://rumpkernel.org/ http://rumpkernel.org/ - you can get filesystems, IP stack, network card drivers, etc. Several new OSs are using them.
- jeffreyrogers 11y agoThanks, that site was really interesting! I hadn't heard of rump kernels before.
