Best Answer

There is no "Linux 4" or "Linux 9." I'm not sure where people get these numbers from. They could be reading the version numbers of a particular distro (such as Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 or SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9). However, the Linux kernel is developed centrally and then subsequently used by all of the distribution vendors. The current stable version of the Linux kernel is 2.6.30; the 2.6 kernel line is expected to continue indefinitely.

Which are the various available versions of UNIX?

According to their website, there are exactly 30 versions in existence.http://www.unix.com/unix-dummies-questions-answers/28637-versions-unix.htmlThere are many different versions of UNIX. Until a few years ago, there were two main versions: the line of UNIX releases that started at AT&T (the latest is System V Release 4), and another line from the University of California at Berkeley (the latest version is BSD 4.4). Some other major commercial versions include SunOS, Solaris, SCO UNIX, AIX, HP/UX, and ULTRIX.
