2. How do you copy an entire directory structure? E.g. from Project to Project.backup

3. Which process below is a “spontaneous process?”

4. What is the name of the current Linux boot loader?

5. How do you direct the shell to execute a command in the background?

Answer 1

As it is Chegg policy to answer the first four questions and as you have some incomplete questions I have answered three questions and request you to post the rest of the questions individually. Thank you.

1.) The next step after the phase called "load kernel" is the "load initial ramdisk" as after loading the kernel the first thing to do is to temporarily load a root file system into the memory which can be used as the part of the Linux startup process.

2.) The correct way to copy an entire directory structure in Linux is by using the cp command as follows:
cp -r Project Project.backup

4.) GRUB

• It is the latest Linux boot loader being used which has an additional feature of dual booting process too.

Hence, these are the answers to the above questions.
