Linux OS Basics Explained in 7 Minutes (Kernel 7.1)
About this lesson
Linux OS basics explained clearly: understand the kernel, filesystem, processes, and permissions in one short video, with real context from kernel 7.1 released June 14, 2026. Linux quietly powers your phone, your cloud apps, and every one of the world's top 500 supercomputers, and right now it is having a genuine moment on the desktop too. In June 2025, Linux crossed 5% desktop market share in the United States for the first time. With Windows 10 extended security updates expiring in October 2026 and governments across Europe actively migrating public offices to open-source systems, understanding Linux fundamentals has never been more relevant. This video walks you through how a Linux operating system actually works, covering the kernel, distros, the filesystem tree, process scheduling, and the permissions model, all grounded in how the real kernel 7.1 release was built and shipped. In this video: - What an operating system and Linux kernel actually do - How Linux distros like Ubuntu, Fedora, and Debian package the kernel - The Linux filesystem: one unified tree from root, with /home, /etc, /var, and /bin - How the kernel creates processes, assigns PIDs, and schedules CPU time - Linux file permissions and the shell: users, groups, read, write, execute Subscribe to Webronaq for clear, practical lessons on tech, CS, and self-growth: https://www.youtube.com/@Webronaq #LinuxOSbasics #Linux #LinuxForBeginners #OperatingSystem #OpenSource
