Are you referring to http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/tom/nachos/ ?
I've never heard of this before, but it's not clear from that site that
there has /ever/ been an actual release for GNU/Linux, only patches.
And the linux.patch
(http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/tom/nachos/linux.patch) is not a
diff patch but verbal instructions...
I was able to make some progress, but I got stuck on the assembly.
