which smaller kernel would Jow Forums recommend?
netbsd?
4.16.9
Write your own kernel
>he doesn't configure the kernel himself before building it
suit yourself
The whole plan 9 system, including the graphical components, only has 2M lines of code.
But does it support Broadcom wireless cards? I didn't think so.
monolithic kernel is shit and obsolete.
microkernel is future.
name one decent microkernel
>protip: you cant
Not all that code goes into the bibary retard.
There are codes for arm arm64 x86 amd64 powerpc mips alpha and tens of other different architectures. And lets not delve into external hardware support, linux supports thousands of different network adapters, usb devices, pci devices, i2c controllers and devicrs, spi, isa, pcie, graphics, power supplies, serial ports, gpio etc
They dont all get compiled together in a single binary
broadcom considered harmful
Minix? Not sure if it's decent.
