Yes! Ofcourse.

To the typical user, the answer is yes. The kernel would simply be included with the standard application. The kernel in used in many applications and is not a specific download for the typical user.
The two main components of an operating system are the kernel and the applications. The kernel maintains basic control over the computer's hardware. The kernel contains the CPU, memory and devices. Applications include the network, the user interface and security.
It does'nt boot.. beacuse hardware interacts with kernel ..kernel interacts with user and user interacts with apps BIOS | Kernel | User | Apps

Kernel mode and user mode are two distinct operating modes in a computer's architecture. Kernel mode allows code to execute with full access to hardware and system resources, enabling it to perform critical tasks like managing memory and hardware devices. In contrast, user mode restricts applications from directly accessing hardware and system resources, providing a controlled environment for running user applications to prevent them from interfering with each other or the operating system. This separation enhances system stability and security.
If u r not satisfied with the available applications or other resources that come with the kernel, then u can modify them according to ur convenience. Add , modify or delete as you wish. This is done to ensure complete satisfaction to the user. This is called tuning of the kernel.
user level theads are not tranparent to kernel level threads.
No. In operating systems a user never interacts directly with the kernel. The kernel is the core of the operating system. It's job is to maintain kernelspace and to facilitate process management, memory management, hardware access control, and interprocess communication. Not to mention provide a framework for device drivers and the hardware abstraction that results. There's not only no direct line between the user and the kernel, there's absolutely no purpose in a user interacting with it. The kernel only gets "messages" from the user through system calls, which are made through low level libraries like glibc by userspace applications, not by the user.
User mode and kernel mode are two distinct operating states in a computer's architecture. User mode restricts applications' access to hardware and system resources for security and stability, allowing them to execute only basic operations. In contrast, kernel mode grants the operating system full access to all hardware and memory, enabling it to manage resources and perform critical system tasks. This separation helps prevent user applications from interfering with core system functions, thereby enhancing overall system stability and security.
The Windows XP Architecture uses both Kernel Mode and User Mode. The kernel mode is the layer of the operating system's code that is responsible for handling such fundamental operating system items as virtual memory and scheduling which applications will run at any given time. User mode is where your actual program runs and is controlled by components of the kernel. For example, the kernel is responsible for allocating the memory that an application uses.
The shell relates to the user and to application and provides a command menu or icon interface, whereas the kernel is responsible for interfacing with the hardware.
