Hello, I hope you’re well!
I have a question while exploring the OPS website. Is it possible to run Nanos, via Bare Metal, for example, put the image on a USB pen and boot a unikernel on my computer from the USB pen, without the need for any hypervisor?
Thank you very much!

No - that’s not something we support nor do we have plans to support.
