Monogon: A Linux userland in pure Go
It looks similar to u-root https://github.com/u-root/u-root, yes, used as part of host firmware. There's a description of u-root in chapter 6 of https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-1-4842-7939-7, too.

Gokrazy – Go Appliances
"A fully Go userland with Linux bootloaders! u-root can create a one-binary root file system (initramfs) containing a busybox-like set of tools written in Go." https://github.com/u-root/u-root
- Gokrazy Is Cool

Is it possible to install a linux specific package on osx?
I am trying to build something with github.com/u-root/u-root/pkg/strace, but the issue I am running into is that my dev environment is an ARM Mac, while the package is specific to Unix systems.

Coreutils Rewritten in Rust
I've seem a few attempts. This is just one example: https://github.com/u-root/u-root/tree/master/cmds/core
- u-root – many Linux tools in a single Golang binary, initramfs, and bootloader

Writing an init with Go (part 1)
Great material! This approach is also used in u-root - Golang busybox created for LinuxBoot. I really enjoy working with it so far!

Securely Chaining Wi-Fi Routers (2022)
An "advert" for a BSD-licensed open-source codebase? Pointers to a comparable OSS networking project, implemented in memory-safe golang or rust, would be appreciated. There is https://router7.org, but for a narrow use case.

Gokrazy Is Cool
I'm also a fan of router7[0] which is based on gokrazy. I'd love to build my own router like it some day.

Building Rust code for my OpenWrt Wi-Fi router
You can do more in a single binary, in the style of BusyBox / router7. Of course, you'd still have to ship BusyBox for admin/debug purposes, but you can save some disk space and probably boot performance too if you don't spawn new processes for every write to /proc or whatever.
