Ingabe i-Linux iyi-Unix?
Ngokusemthethweni uhlelo lokusebenza aluvunyelwe ukubizwa ngokuthi i-Unix kuze kube yilapho lidlula izivivinyo zokuqinisekisa ze-Open Group, futhi lisekela ama-API adingekayo. Akekho okwamanje oye wangenela ukukhokha imali enkulu ukuthi isitifiketi kuhilela, ngakho asivunyelwe ukuyibiza ngokuthi Unix. Izitifiketi empeleni azisho lukhulu. Zimbalwa kakhulu izinhlelo zokusebenza zezentengiselwano eziye zadlula ezivivinyweni ze-Open Group.  Ngokungekho emthethweni, i-Linux ifana kakhulu nezinhlelo zokusebenza ezaziwa ngokuthi i-Unix, futhi ngezinhloso eziningi ziyalingana. I-Linux i-kernel i-kernel yesistimu yokusebenza eziphatha futhi isebenze ngokufana nohlelo lokusebenza oludumile lwe-Unix oluvela ku-AT & T Bell Labs. I-Linux ivame ukubizwa ngokuthi uhlelo lokusebenza "olufana ne-Unix". Ukuze uthole ukwaziswa okwengeziwe, bheka http://www.unix-systems.org/what_is_unix.html.
