Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org I 've tested the User Mode Linux a few times ago, and it gave me an idea: given the fact that we had a GCC which produce bytecode from C, it would be possible to produce a port of linux(a new directory "jvm" in the arch dir) which would run in a Java Virtual Machine. (after some inquiries such compiler does not exist :-( ) I'm dreaming of a linux booting in a browser applet(imagine sending such thing in a mail to MS peoples !!!!)
