It is actually a kernel module with a service. NFS is the short form of Network Files System. Installation We can install NFS client tools and service with the following commands. Ubuntu, Debian, Mint, Kali: Following command will install client...
Linux is a Operating System kernel and user space applications will create different distributions like CentOS, Ubuntu, Mint, Kali around this kernel. Kernel can be downloaded freely and used without any license fee. In this tutorial we will learn how to download Linux Kernel from kernel.org and compiling with GCC . An the last step installing or upgrading the kernel. Download Kernel Source Code Kernel source code is originally maintained...
VMware is a Linux based virtualization system which provides rich features. VMware supported by different platforms like Windows, MacOS, Linux. As WMware is a closed source product we need to make some manual work on Linux systems. If we are using Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, Mint and similar up-to-date systems which owns kernel newer than 4.8 VMware do not works accordingly. In this tutorial we will look the problem and how...

Hi today we are going to compile Linux kernel. you can think that compiling kernel is very complicated and hard for you. But it is not. It is more easy to compile than a lot other projects. Because Linux kernel has no dependency to library or other tools. It needs just ncurses development library which is used for module configuration. Lets start the process. Download Linux Kernel Source Code Linux Kernel...
I have Ubuntu systems and I have old kernel. I want to upgrade my Linux system kernel. How can I do that? Linux kernel can be upgraded by two ways one way is getting source code compiling and installing it. Second way is by using package manager to update kernel.

Linux kernel is the core of the Linux based operating systems we call them simply Linux. But sometimes they called Linux Distributions. Kernel initialize system with hardware. Manages hardware to provide services for upper layer operating system application. Kernel do memory management which means allot memory for applications or frees the memory. Manages processes by creating, forking or killing them. Now some little Linux kernel history. Release History 1.0 kernel...
