Hi,
I got into a conversation today at work about the need to reboot Windows
machines after installing, uninstalling or updating software. My colleague
said that he couldn't see how it could be done after I had said that the newer
versions of Windows server do this. (A customer complained that some software
that we had shipped needed two reboots to get it working in Windows Server
2008.) To this I mentioned that Linux had been doing this for years, but
couldn't explain how.
Can anyone point me at a 101 standard tutorial or reference page which
explains how running code gets overwritten in memory when Linux updates
packages?
