ease of learning, not for commercial purpose.) 0:01 version released to the

Kemampuan
Sistem Linux
Ø Multiuser
Kemampuan OS menangani banyak
user secara simultan baik pada aplikasi yang sama maupun aplikasi yang berbeda.
Ø Multitasking
Kemampuan OS menangani sejumlah
pekerjaan (task) secara simultan. Kernel Linux merupakan kernel modular dimana
dapat dikonfigurasi dengan modul-modul (berupa device driver) pluggable yang dapat dipasang atau
dilepas sesuai kebutuhan. Hal ini membuat kernel Linux menjadi kecil dan
ringkas, menghemat memori yang digunakan kernel sehingga bisa digunakan untuk
alokasi memori aplikasi.
