Yes, my comment is poorly phrased, but the spirit is valid. Linux could not have come from Unix as Unix OSes were closed source at the time. It was not a fork. However, Linux was intended to be an open-source variant to Unix from inception. Torvalds aimed for POSIX and ABI compatibility from the start, it was one of his stated goals for developing the kernel. |
