MkLinux (for Microkernel Linux) is an open-source software computer operating system begun by the Open Software Foundation Research Institute[1] and Apple Computer[2] in February 1996, to port Linux to the PowerPC platform, and Macintosh computers. The name refers to the Linux kernel being adapted to run as a server hosted on the Mach microkernel, version 3.0.[3]
