Subject: [9fans] General question about hosted interfaces
Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2001 15:17:57 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3B4B13AF.6336FDA6@null.net> (raw)
What is it, apart from someone having to do the work, that would prevent
the above-device-level portion of Plan 9, perhaps Inferno's emu, running
on top of a UNIX system (or even Windows, gasp), with the hosted-Plan-9
first importing the UNIX /-rooted file system globally then overlay-
mounting the hosted-Plan-9 specific parts of the name space? I.e. true
rio, acme, etc. for people who are not in a position to control the
choice of operating system.
I know that would introduce inefficiencies in the data paths, but that
is not necessarily a fatal problem.
