They really are radically different types of structure David.
Many elements incorporated into the Linux kernel don't need to be there.
Placing essentially all drivers above the kernel (as a microkernel OS would) just makes sense to me.
Well currently all drivers (Someone correct me if I'm wrong) all drivers in MorphOS run in the same space as the Exec kernel hence the desire to move to using Quark instead.
Genode uses a microkernel (L4 or a few other options/variants) and everything else including the Intel wireless drivers from Linux run outside of the kernel.
I don't see why it's an issue for you Jim.
