Section: - Chapter Test: Controlling and Troubleshooting the Red Hat Enterprise Linux Boot Process
Language: en-US (English)||||||||
Workaround: Ignoring the Quiz solution as of now as it will create confusion.

Description: According to Explanation in Chapter 13 Section 1 and the Red Hat Product Documentations:

The kernel initializes all hardware for which it can find a driver in the initramfs, then executes /sbin/init from the initramfs as PID 1. On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, the initramfs contains a working copy of systemd as /sbin/init, as well as a udev daemon.

But the solution to the quiz states the opposite:

• A kernel and initramfs are loaded from disk.
• The kernel initializes and launches /sbin/init from the initramfs.
• Basic hardware initialization takes place

According to explanation basic hardware initialization takes place before execution of /sbin/init .
