QEMU's primary purpose in Linux virtualization is emulation and virtualization. It can emulate various hardware components and architectures, making it a versatile tool for running virtual machines and testing software on different platforms.

The "grub.cfg" file in Linux contains the default boot entry and settings for the bootloader. GRUB (Grand Unified Bootloader) is a commonly used bootloader in Linux systems, and its configuration is stored in this file. It determines which operating system and kernel to boot.

If you want to store the exit status of a command in a variable, you would typically use the $? built-in variable. The $? variable contains the exit status of the last command executed, where 0 usually indicates success, and non-zero values indicate an error or failure.

To check if the number of arguments provided to the script is less than 3, you would use if [ "$#" -lt 3 ]. This tests whether the number of script arguments, represented by $#, is less than 3. Option 2 checks if the number of arguments is exactly 3, and Option 3 checks if it's greater than 3. Option 4 checks if there are no arguments.

The correct option is -p. When using the ssh command, you can specify a different port for the connection using the -p option followed by the port number (e.g., ssh -p 2222 user@hostname). This is useful when an SSH server is configured to listen on a non-default port.

In package management, a "repository" refers to a centralized location where software packages are stored and maintained. These repositories contain packages that can be downloaded, installed, or updated on a Linux system using package management tools.

The kill command in Linux is used to send a signal to a process, often used for termination. It allows you to gracefully terminate or send specific signals to processes, giving you control over their behavior.

To enable seamless file sharing with Windows clients, you would primarily consider installing Samba. Samba is a software suite that allows interoperability between Linux/Unix servers and Windows-based clients. It provides support for the SMB/CIFS protocol used in Windows networking.

The correct command to display a visual representation of disk usage in Linux is ncdu. It stands for "NCurses Disk Usage" and provides a detailed and interactive view of disk usage, allowing users to navigate through directories and identify space-consuming files or folders. Unlike the other options, ncdu is specifically designed for this purpose.

The component of the Linux system that manages process scheduling is the Scheduler. The scheduler is responsible for determining the order in which processes are executed on the CPU, ensuring efficient and fair utilization of system resources.
