Has anyone taken a look at the HURD?  I read about it in the Debian
weekly news all the time.  It's starting to get close to becoming a
Debian distribution offering. (Unstable of course)

Its macro-kernel based so it might shrink much better than Linux.  As
a general purpose OS its still too unstable but it might work as a
glorified bootloader.
