I guess the question was more about running umodified Linux in a VM on top of 
Fiasco. In this scenario, Fiasco acts as the hypervisor only. There is the 
'uvmm' package that implements a virtual machine monitor, which sets up a 
hardware-like environment for Linux. That package also has an example 
configuration.
