What is BusyBox in Linux?

BusyBox is a project that aims to provide a number of common Linux utilities (such as grep,ls,who,passwd,head,uname, and so on) in a single binary. This has the advantage of reducing the amount of space needed to store all these functions. As it is smaller than the standard tool package, it is used in ramdisks and in embedded systems where space is an issue.

What utilities in Linux are located in more than one directory on the local system?

In Linux, utilities like ls, cp, and mv can be found in multiple directories due to the presence of different versions or implementations across various packages. For example, ls may exist in both /bin/ and /usr/bin/, or you might find alternative implementations like coreutils or busybox in different locations. This redundancy can occur in systems with multiple installed packages or environments, such as Docker containers or chrooted environments. To identify these utilities, the which or whereis commands can be helpful.


Which shell is used by Linux as the default command interpreter?

There is no "default" shell. Different distros are free to pick whatever shell they want. The most commonly used as the main shell is Bash, but other shells, including the Korn shell, C shell, Friendly Interactive Shell, or Almquist shell are also available. Many distros also use a variant of the Almquist shell provided by BusyBox in their initial ramdisks before switching to the real root and launching the main shell.
