What is the process ID number of the init process on a System V init based system?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: C

The process ID number of the init process on a System V init based system is always 1. This is because the init process is the first process started by the kernel during the boot process, and it is assigned PID 1. This process is responsible for system initialization, running startup scripts, and managing all other processes on the system.

The correct answer is C. 1. In System V init-based systems, the init process is the first process to be started when the system boots. It is responsible for initializing the system and starting other system services. The init process is assigned the process ID number 1. This means that the init process is the parent of all other processes on the system.
