I'd like to know if I'm totally lost about this idea:
With at least 2 cores, start with a TC on only one core
(if there is one primus inter pares [PiP] because of hard wires ports,
this one).
This is used for code development.
It seems to me that traditional OSes take as undifferentiated as

The whole rcpu thing could make doing the UI software fairly easy. It
would have to assume a mouse click translated into a finger touch.
Multi touch would be another issue. But that could be done first on
pc hardware using a multi touch input device.
Over all, not much different from the stuff I
I would advise one at a time. Big Bang changes make bisection much
harder. Pick a nice short simple file you are sure you understand,
and try it.
Be sure to always see if the behavior in qemu or vmx is the same
before and after.
Small moves.

I wonder if that would be easier.

Above all, make very sure you're not leaving a system that compiles
but will grenade once someone else tries it. You can test that via vmx
or qemu, qemu being the better choice at the moment.

Are you out of your head? No. But the people who design modern-

Sirjojri had some interface ideas he wanted to use the Pinephone as a
platform to test on.
When we were discussing it over on the 9fans discord, it was
interesting to see other people chime in with what they considered
essential for an interface to be "Plan 9". Like using the 3 side
buttons to do
What is in the Nix current 386 is available, on 9front, whether under

Generally 386/ -> pc/ with same filename except:

you're asking for logical partitioning, as done on IBM power for
example, so you can run two kernels on one machine at the same time.
On Intel it's not easy. We tried it for several years at one of my jobs.
A friend from Google reminded me of my summary of the experience.

Just in case, I did a survey back then, and published the results. Here's the
