Just curious : how does one run go without a linux kernel ? (without a kernel at all, please, I know about the freebsd port)

[cantankerous]

You'll probably be looking for a Go runtime that fills a kernel shaped hole. Without a kernel, where do all your syscalls go?

Yes but the point of the parent poster was that go can work on minimal embedded systems, which to my knowledge it cannot, so I enquired.

No, the point of the parent poster was that "systems" is not the same as "embedded", and that while go may not work on the latter it can work on the former.
