Partly checked. None of the 4 questions here has been read against the cited source by a person. 4 questions have been checked against their cited clause by an automated pass — which is not the same thing, and is not a signature.
Only questions a person has signed for are used in mock exams here. That is the whole difference between the two kinds of checking above.
Questions in this lesson
- On a traditional BIOS PC, the firmware has completed its power-on self test and selected the hard disk as the boot device. What happens next? machine-checked
- A systemd-based machine fails during a normal boot because a service hangs. At the boot loader menu you want to edit the kernel command line for this one boot so the system comes up in single-user rescue mode instead. Which parameter do you append? machine-checked
- A systemd server with a persistent journal rebooted overnight. You need the log messages from the boot that ended in that reboot, not from the current boot. Which command shows them? machine-checked
- Which THREE of the following have been used on Linux as the init system, that is the first userspace process the kernel starts as PID 1? machine-checked
