RE: Almost the reverse of Debian/kFreeBSD

in reply to "Almost the reverse of Debian/kFreeBSD"
This seems to be like the reverse of Debian/kFreeBSD, which is the Debian userland on top of the FreeBSD kernel.
This seems to be more than that. Debian/kFreeBSD is "just" Debian on top of kFreeBSD, without significant changes. For example, systemd cannot be used on Debian/kFreeBSD right now because kFreeBSD is missing some stuff that Linux has. A good analogy would be to port those things to kFreeBSD in order for systemd to work, for example. That's why Magenta (at least for me) looks much harder to accomplish.
