Then why not implement deferent syscalls for floppy disks, hard disk dr= ives, solid state disks and normal files? If you want one generic API t= han write an users-space library.

If you want something like that then do it = in > userspace. I just don't see the need here for an extra kernel API. There is no concept, what should be in user-space and what not. It's al= l mixed together. Not a microkernel, no a monolithic kernel, awful. I'm not needed any more, so I can switching off myself. Bye.
