Introduction the Linux Operating System:-

Linux is an operating system or a kernel. It is distributed under an open source

license. Its functionality list is quite like UNIX.Linux is an operating system or a
kernel which germinated as an idea in the mind of young and bright Linus
TorvaSo Linus devised a Kernel named Linux in 1991. Though he would need
programs like File Manager, Document Editors, Audio -Video programs to run
on itlds when he was a computer science student. he thought of launching an
OS which will be receptive to changes, modifications suggested by its users.As
time passed by, he collaborated with other programmers in places like MIT and
applications for Linux started to appear. So around 1991, a working Linux
operating system with some applications was officially launched, and this was
the start of one of the most loved and open-source OS options available today.

The earlier versions of Linux were not so user-friendly as they were in use by
computer programmers and Linus Torvalds never had it in mind to
commercialize his product.This definitely curbed the Linux's popularity as other
commercially oriented Operating System Windows got famous. Nonetheless,
the open-source aspect of the Linux operating system made it more robust.The
main advantage of Linux was that programmers were able to use the Linux
Kernel to design their own custom operating systems. With time, a new range
of user-friendly OS's stormed the computer world. Now, Linux is one of the
most popular and widely used Kernel, and it is the backbone of popular
operating systems like Debian, Knoppix, Ubuntu, and Fedora. Nevertheless, the
list does not end here as there are thousands of OS's based on Linux which
offer a variety of functions to the users.
Linux Kernel is normally used in combination of GNU project by Dr. Richard
Stallman. All mordern distributions of Linux are actually distributions of
Linux/GNU
