You do not want to sell the *nix OS.              What kind of *nix OS is to be used is completly part of your customers       responsibility.               pl> I want to SELL a product and need a *nix OS. What OS would you use?              You don't have to care. Your products requirement is a *nix OS so it does run       with any *nix OS. So if it does not run with Tom's rtbt or any version of the       *nixes found on distrowatch.com it's a warranty case and you need to fix your       product.              Regards              Kai              --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.4.7        * Origin: Monobox (2:240/77)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 105/81 120/340 123/131 226/30 227/114 702 229/101       SEEN-BY: 229/424 426 452 550 616 664 1016 1017 240/77 5138 5411 5824       SEEN-BY: 240/5832 5853 249/206 317 400 280/464 292/854 310/31 317/3       SEEN-BY: 320/219 322/757 342/200 633/280 2432/390 2452/250 2454/119       PATH: 240/77 5832 229/426           |
