Guys, im in desperate need of help today..we are actually having researches on any OS we could and explain its architecture, characteristics and some of its component management such as Communication, Process management, file management and a few on Input/Output Management.
My problem is that I cannot defend how Knoppix takes over a system whenever it boots up. What is the magic (or the specific explanation) behind the boot up process of Knoppix..? It is a type of a Linux right..? Does it have a preinstalled Linux Kernel on the CD? What Kernel does it utilizes? Or does it need to have a kernel?
Does it overlap the default OS? I don't know, really, what to say..Is Knoppix compatible to any OS it "overlap"s? Or is overlapping the right term...? I think it needs a kernel so that there would be a communication between the hardware and the OS. am I right? Oh man..
Thanks to anyone who could help within a couple of hours..
I would be watching tightly on the PC!
