Implementing Linux Compatibility For NetBSD/PPC

Emmanuel Dreyfus writes: "Linux Compatibility on BSD for the PPC platform is a three-part series of articles published at O'Reilly's ONLamp.com. The series is intended to document various parts of the emulation subsystem, and to highlight some architecture-dependent issues that can arise in argument passing, signal handling, and with the way some system calls work. The first article is now available, with the others to follow soon." Though the article cautions that it is intended for the technically astute, it includes a very lucid description of what emulation requires, and how it actually works.
