-
-Currently, for disks Mach integrates drivers from Linux 2.0 through some
-[[community/gsoc/project_ideas/driver_glue_code]]. As it's very old, that
-limits hardware support a lot, of course. For network boards, we use the
-[[DDE]] toolkit to run linux 2.6.32 drivers in userland processes,
-which provides both long-term support for new hardware and safety against driver
-bugs. [[microkernel/mach/gnumach/ports/Xen]] is also supported, both blkfront
-and netfront.
-
-Note however that we have of course not tested all drivers, we obviously don't
-even have all kinds of hardware. So we can not promise that they will all
-work. What probably works for sure is what we usually use: the rtl8139 or e1000
-drivers for instance.
