## 11. Kernel
The Kernel is responsible for talking between the hardware and the software, and to manage the systems resources.
The Linux Kernel is a monolithic kernel, unlike the OSX and the Windows kernels which are hybrid.
You can find the kernel file in `/boot`. It might look like something like this`vmlinuz-4.4.0-57-generic`. In the beginning of time the kernel was simply called `linux`. But when Virtual Memory was introduced they changed the name to `vmlinux` to reflect that the kernel could handle virtual memory. When the kernel later became too big it was compressed using zlib , therefore the name was changed to `vmlinuz`.
If you are using a distro that is Long Term Supported (LTS). You will not get the latest Kernel version, but you will get the latest Long Term Supported version.
