Otherwise your computer will be very, very, very slow, as it is much quicker to read and write from RAM then it is to read and write from the hard drive.
The operating system resides in secondary memory i.e., hard disk.when we boot our computer it is loaded into Primary memory i.e.,RAM and then loaded,this process is called booting
on the hard drive
it is loaded on the ram of a computer ( memory ) and it is also loaded on a partiton of your hard drive if your operating systemwas installed when you broiught it it is partitiion 1
disck operating system means an operating system primarily run on older computers and run from a disket or disk todays computers run the operating system from the hardrive where as witrh dos the operating system was loaded into the ram via a disk or loaded onto the hard drive via a disk plus it was also comand line driven
Depending on the base operating system, yes. In almost all cases, the operating system from which the second one is loaded lacks memory protection, allowing the second operating system to replace the first one in memory. This can be used, for instance, to boot Linux from MS-DOS or classic versions of Mac OS.

Operating system must be loaded first so that other applications and programs will be able to work.

The operating system is loaded into the computers internal memory (RAM) at start-up. The operating system needs to 'reserve' chunks of memory to enable it to perform its functions swiftly and accurately. If a computer doesn't have enough RAM, the computer cannot run the operating system efficiently, often using empty hard-disk space - which slows down the computer.

The space reserved for virtual memory varies on different computers. It depends on the operating system in use and how much system memory is available.
