Ok, I got it. Hey cool: they use Debian as thier base. That's nice - then you're sure the stuff is pretty stable. So now we have Debian GNU/Linux <- Monolithic kernel Debian GNU/Hurd <- A microkernel - GNU Mach + translators Debian GNU/FreeBSD <- A microkernel? Defently a BSD :-) Debian GNU/NetBSD <- A microkernel? Defently a BSD :-) Debian GNU/VMS <- Well, there's a rumour at least. Debian GNU/MacOS <- BSD on a Mach micro kernel, but called Fink Beat that Red Hat, SuSE, TurbuLinux, Slackware, Mandrake, ... And the best thing about Debian: There's no company selling you yibbayaba, and it's what all the pro's use :-) Oh, and it seems that Libtool does support upto MacOS 10.1 at least. Nice. I like that Fink project (must have read about it in DWN at some point, but have forgotton). Now, if we can get Apple to open the souce code, we can really get a true `Debian GNU/Mac'. Wouldn't that be cool. (oh, and I forgot this too :-) Yours, ____ | Christian Holm Christensen |_| | ------------------------------------------------------------- | | Address: Sankt Hansgade 23, 1. th.
