I came across the Gentoo/FreeBSD project at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-freebsd.xml A description states What is Gentoo/FreeBSD? Gentoo/FreeBSD is an effort to provide a fully-capable FreeBSD operating system with Gentoo's design sensibilities. The long-term goal of the Gentoo/BSD project is to allow users to choose any combination of *BSD or Linux kernels, *BSD or GNU libc, and *BSD or GNU userland tools. What exactly does this gain a user? Use of both Linux and FreeBSD fully, partially, some sort of mutant creature? FreeBSD is a complete from top to bottom, so again, what does this combo do for a user? Would this gain something else instead of having linux support enabled? Thanks Sean
