Description

Kernel instances can run in user space through User Mode Linux for testing and isolation.

This package is useful for developers and administrators who need a Linux kernel that runs as a process. It is virtualization-oriented kernel software, not the normal host kernel package.

User-mode kernels still interact with files, networking, and test workloads. Keep test environments separated from private data.
