Project description:
Linux is a clone of the Unix kernel, written from scratch by Linus
Torvalds with assistance from a loosely-knit team of hackers across
the Net. It aims towards POSIX and Single UNIX Specification
compliance. It has all the features you would expect in a modern
fully-fledged Unix kernel, including true multitasking, virtual
memory, shared libraries, demand loading, shared copy-on-write
executables, proper memory management, and TCP/IP networking.
