Re: [MirageOS-devel] tuntap on Yosemite

[Heidi Howard <hh360@xxxxxxxxx>]

My fault, thats great, I just didn't scroll beyondÂ

-t TARGET, --target=TARGET

     ÂTarget platform to compile the unikernel for. Valid values are:

     Âxen, unix, macosx. There are short forms available via --xen and

     Â--unix as well.

That was for backwards compatibility, so that `mirage --unix` just does the right thing on either Linux or MacOS X.

The `mirage configure --help` says this:

   Â--unix
     ÂUse Unix backend. Do not use in conjunction with --xen. On MacOS X,
     Âthis will use platform-specific code to be generated. To force pure
     ÂUnix mode on MacOS X, set the -t flag to unix instead.

Did you have somewhere else in mind to update?
