Has anyone tried GNU-Mach and GNU-Hurd?Minix is based on a microkernel architecture. Linux uses a monolithic kernel instead - and this inherent difference of architecture caused that by now well known "fall-out" between Tannenbaum and Torwalds, remember? No wonder thus that when in March 1994 version 1.0 was presented at the University of Helsinki, it was a totally different operating system from Minix.
I didn't have time to have a look myself, but I am willing to see a replacement of Linux kernel where one does not have to recompile, for example, to activate the FrameBuffer, to add devices or to many other things (I admit I haven't read much about the PAMs).
NT is microkernel too, in my understanding it's a little advantage over Linux at this moment (?).
