Talk:Monolithic system
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I don't believe this article is accurate. Most references to "Monolithic System" that I can find on google are referring to either a Monolithic kernel or the actual compan known as "Monolithic System Technology Inc." I'm going to put this stub on VfD. Timbatron 15:54, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
I think it should be merged.--BMF81 02:07, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
A monolithic kernal and monolithic system are completely different. For example, the Linux Kernel (which is monolithic) is very separated from it's userland which primarily consists of independantly developed GNU projects as well as other software depending on the distro. On the other hand we have Windows XP, which will not work without IE (and other bundled software) but IE has absolutely nothing to do with kernel or even the core parts of the NT system. To me WinXP should be defined as a monolithic system, the linux kernal as a monolithic kernal. Two completely different things. --151.118.1.197 18:25, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
no merge Not the same topic at all. I question the article itself. I'll add some tags. Widefox 17:45, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
Both the topics are different. Monolithic architecture does not imply operating systems. Its a general term. Bibhu
