You're talking about x86 FreeBSD, right? It should be reasonably straightforward. FreeBSD is reasonably close to Linux in ways that matter to UML. The one major problem is FreeBSD's lack of a PTRACE_SYSCALL equivalent, but that can be worked around. > Also i need to know where to start from. Get a UML pool, build it and see what breaks. Then start fixing it. Jeff |

There is a Windows port underway which is making good progress. So, I think it loses on uniqueness. FreeBSD would be a good choice, actually. It's close enough to Linux to make it realistic as a part-time project. It's also fairly interesting since combining it with UML/ppc would give you UML on OS/X. If it's too easy and you finish way ahead of time, resurrecting UML/ppc and bringing UML up on Darwin would make a nice extension of the project. Jeff |
