From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

the pid1 part is wrong, only the systemd-init run in pid1, in it's own process, own binary etc, it's sole purpose is being an init system, after that it start the rest of the system, including the others systemd binaries

the rest is perfect thanks!, in the lennart he made a comparation with ssh were you "forward the commad to run as root", i think it's a good analogy
