You mean IOS XR? Which was never released for software based routers, right? as it QNX in core.
no, I meant modular IOS, not XR. This was an attempt to run a non bare-metal IOS. The kernel was based on qnx (http://goo.gl/9RSwHn), and cisco released it for the C6500 on the SXH and SXI code train. It turned out not to be much of a success in the end - very little of use was modularised, and it was canned after two minor code train releases. A bit sad really, because it never had enough time to mature. It was never released for any other platform. IOS-XE was a better implementation of non bare-metal ios Nick
