I'm not quite sure about pfinet and ext2 -- these implement some specific POSIX interfaces as well, but I think they rely on the main POSIX mechanisms being in place, so I guess they don't need special handling here. (ext2 logging to a syslog file on the ext2 partition, or pfinet logging to syslog over network, might make for interesting effects though... I guess this problem also requires some consideration.) > Since all Hurd servers lie in user space, it seems contradictory to > use the term low-level. I don't see why. Just because they run in user space, doesn't mean they are automatically high-level. -antrik- _______________________________________________ Bug-hurd mailing list Bug-hurd@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd
