来自linux-/README?Linux kernel release 2.6.xx /These are the release notes for Linux version 2.6.? Read them carefully,as they tell you what this is all about, explain how to install thekernel, and what to do if something goes wrong.?WHAT IS LINUX?? Linux is a clone of the operating system Unix, written from scratch by? Linus Torvalds with assistance from a loosely-knit team of hackers across? the Net. It aims towards POSIX and Single UNIX Specification compliance.? It has all the features you would expect in a modern fully-fledged Unix,? including true multitasking, virtual memory, shared libraries, demand? loading, shared copy-on-write executables, proper memory management,? and multistack networking including IPv4 and IPv6.? It is distributed under the GNU General Public License - see the? accompanying COPYING file for more details.?ON WHAT HARDWARE DOES IT RUN?在什么机器上可以跑？? Although originally developed first for 32-bit x86-based PCs (386 or higher),? today Linux also runs on (at least) the Compaq Alpha AXP, Sun SPARC and? UltraSPARC, Motorola 68000, PowerPC, PowerPC64, ARM, Hitachi SuperH, Cell,? IBM S/390, MIPS, HP PA-RISC, Intel IA-64, DEC VAX, AMD x86-64, AXIS CRIS,? Xtensa, AVR32 and Renesas M32R architectures.? Linux is easily portable(方便的) to most general-purpose 32- or 64-bit architectures? as long as they have a paged memory management unit (PMMU) and a port of the? GNU C compiler (gcc) (part of The GNU Compiler Collection, GCC). Linux has? also been ported to a number of architectures without a PMMU, although? functionality is then obviously somewhat（有点） limited.? Linux has also been ported to itself. You can now run the kernel as a? userspace application - this is called UserMode Linux (UML).??? linux很容易就可以移植到32或者64位的机器上，只要它们有内存管理单元(PMMU)和一个GNU C编译工具。? linux也可以移植到一些没有PMMU的机器上，虽然功能上有点限制。linux也可以移植到自身。你现在就可以? 将内核作为一个用户空间的应用程序（UML）。??DOCUMENTATION:?- There is a lot of documentation available both in electronic fo
