Thanks Amit. For 2, what is the method (or document) to PV the OS. Your website mentions it a lot, but I've never seen the actual steps (~900 lines) to do so.

PB926 should work fine on public sources. -- Thanks, Amit Mahajan _______________________________________________ codezero-devel mailing list codezero-devel@lists.l4dev.org http://lists.l4dev.org/mailman/listinfo/codezero-devel_lists.l4dev.org
