That is not correct. GRUB loads gnumach and serverboot, and tells gnumach where the module serverboot is in the core. Then GNU Mach initializes the internal information and the device drivers, and then executes serverboot. The module serverboot analyses the configuration file servers.boot, start the fs server specified in servers.boot and ... Read the source code for serverboot and init, for more information. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- OKUJI Yoshinori <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ^o-o^ http://duff.kuicr.kyoto-u.ac.jp/~okuji (in English) m /
