Essential System Services

When using System V init, which program does the Linux kernel start first during boot?

  • A /lib/init.so
  • B /proc/sys/kernel/init
  • C /etc/rc.d/rcinit
  • D /sbin/init
  • E /boot/init
Explanation

System V init uses /sbin/init as the first user-space process started by the Linux kernel. It runs as PID 1 and begins the system initialization sequence.
