In Linux, the flow of control during a boot is from BIOS, to boot loader, to kernel. The kernel then starts the scheduler (to allow multi-tasking) and runs the first userland (i.e. outside kernel space) program Init (which is mostly responsible to run startup scripts for each runlevel), at which point the kernel goes idle unless called externally.

Name of schedulers in Linux?

In Linux you have Cron which manages most of the scheduling. Of course if you mean scheduling that happens when a user shutdown or starts up a computer you would be talking about init which is the first program started when booting Linux. Alternatively you could use another scheduler such as atd if you are used to an UNIX like scheduler system.

What are 6 high level stages of Linux boot process?

The Linux boot process consists of six high-level stages: BIOS/UEFI Initialization: The system firmware initializes hardware components and performs a POST (Power-On Self-Test). Bootloader Stage: The bootloader (like GRUB or LILO) is loaded, which then loads the Linux kernel into memory. Kernel Initialization: The kernel initializes system resources, mounts the root filesystem, and prepares the system for user space. Init Process: The kernel starts the init process (usually systemd or SysVinit), which is the first user-space program. Runlevel/Target Setup: The init process sets up the desired runlevel or target, launching necessary services and processes. User Login: Finally, the system presents a login prompt or graphical interface, allowing users to log in and interact with the system.
