Parts of it was derived from FreeBSD (mainly userland stuff.) Other parts of MacOS X (including the kernel) was mainly derived from Mach, and some parts were of course written by Apple themselves (or taken from other places.) So, even though it is in part derived from FreeBSD, you should not expect any sort of binary compatibility between them. -- <Insert your favourite quote here.> Erik Trulsson [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
