Question 2 of 179
During a system boot cycle, what program is executed after the BIOS completes its tasks?
Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is A.

Once the BIOS completes its tasks during a system boot cycle, the bootloader is the program that is executed next. The bootloader is responsible for loading the operating system's kernel into memory and starting it. The inetd and init programs are not executed immediately after the BIOS; the inetd is a super server daemon often used to manage internet services, and init is the first process started by the kernel after it has been loaded by the bootloader.

Question 3 of 179
Which run levels should never be declared as the default run level when using SysV init? (Choose TWO correct answers.)
Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is A, E.

Run levels 0 and 6 should never be declared as the default run level when using SysV init. Run level 0 is used for shutting down the system, and run level 6 is used for rebooting the system. Setting either of these as the default run level would result in the system either continuously shutting down or rebooting, making it unusable.

Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is C.

The /proc/ directory contains virtual files that represent the system's current state and kernel parameters. Changes made to writable files in /proc/ are immediately recognized by the kernel, allowing for real-time updates and configuration.

Question 5 of 179
What of the following statements are true regarding /dev/ when using udev? (Choose TWO correct answers.)
Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is B, D.

Additional rules for udev can be created by adding them to /etc/udev/rules.d/, allowing for customization and configuration of device handling. The /dev/ directory is a filesystem of type tmpfs and is mounted by udev during system startup, implying that it is dynamically populated by udev as devices are detected. This means that entries are not pre-created on boot for all possible devices, contrary to what option A suggests. Contrary to option C, it is possible to manually create block or character devices using mknod, but this is generally managed by udev. Option E is incorrect as /dev/ is managed dynamically by udev and not stored or restored from a directory.
