I have a question and I don't know if this is the right place to post it to.
Anyway, does FreeBSD 2.0 have the same design as 4.3BSD?

We are trying to build a PROCESS MIGRATION facility, and currently, we're
trying to build it under Linux.  However, Linux does not have any design 
documents -- not one!  We're thinking of shifting to FreeBSD if it has
design documents.

We also have the book entitled "The Design and Implementation of 4.3 BSD
UNIX Operating System" by Leffler, et al.  Are the design details stated
there applicable to FreeBSD 2.0?

We need a lot of help guys -- and fast!  Hope we can get replies soon!
