>IIRC, GSX is Linux with custom kernel modules but ESX is it's own kernel. I think it was based on FreeBSD way back when they founded VMWare.. no idea if they pull things from the FreeBSD of today.
GSX can run on Windows 2K+ or Linux AFAIK. ESX runs a cutdown version of what appears to be Redhat 7.x Also, GSX seems to run on almost any hardware while ESX was VERY picky about what it ran on - it only runs on SCSI disks BTW... I have installed and used both ESX & GSX and they are VERY impressive products. I was told by the VMWARE rep that a VMWARE virtual machine could be moved "on-the-fly" across a SAN without shutting it down! Haven't tested this yet though!
