Hello,

Fabrice Bellard, famous for being the initial author of Qemu, but also
of FFmpeg, for holding several records in PI computation, and for many
other things, has just released a x86 emulator written in Javascript
that runs inside your browser: http://bellard.org/jslinux/.

This news has been slashdoted:

The link with Buildroot ?

According to the technical details page at
http://bellard.org/jslinux/tech.html, the system used for the demo has
been generated with Buildroot:

?
The disk image is just a ram disk image loaded at boot time. It
contains a filesystem generated with Buildroot containing BusyBox. I
added my toy C compiler TinyCC and my unfinished but usable emacs clone
QEmacs.
?
