Why should I stay away from hard disks in Linux?

Article Title: Why should I stay away from hard disks in Linux ?. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.

In this article, Linux is a grassroots version of Linux, that is, Linux is an authentic GNU/Linux. Now the question is, in China, why does GNU/Linux need to stay away from hard disks? What is the cause?

As we all know, an isolated hard disk is not terrible. However, as a core component of a computer, the situation is different. A hard disk is firmly bound to a computer and becomes an indispensable component of the computer.

Commercial software products must be installed on a specific computer hard disk to obtain a local account (activation identification ). Generally, a set of commercial software products can only be installed on one computer. This is a general rule, and you don't have to say much about it. Linux is a free software that allows free use and distribution. Therefore, the ideal carrier is the Live flash drive. Linux is home to four seas, just like a nomadic people, and does not have to be installed on a fixed computer in order to get a local account. From the perspective of Linux, the hard disk is simply a cage and cannot be accessed. there is no need for a hard disk to exist.

In fact, Google's Chrome computer does not have a hard disk. Google Chrome has only one Firmware, which is installed with necessary system software. From the perspective of Chrome computers, traditional hard drives are not necessary. It can be seen that Linux, as a nomadic people in the IT world, is the most ideal carrier (Linux caravan) as a Live flash drive (similar to a mobile SSD ). Flash drive development is late, which is a historical tragedy of Linux development.

As we all know, the first principle of Linux is "freely re-distribute" (free redistribution ). Therefore, Linux does not need a local account to activate authentication before it can run properly. However, this is not the case. They believe that Linux should also have a place of origin account, one set of installation on the hard disk is counted, so as to compare the output value with Windows. According to this idea, Linux is named "domestic", and it is hard to compete with Windows on the hard disk, to see who installs a large volume, or even compare the output value with Windows. In essence, this kind of insight refers to the "classics" of Linux. Strictly speaking, only commercial software can talk about market share. for Linux, talking about its market share has little practical significance. A Linux system can be installed on many computers and can coexist with commercial software. what market share does it mean ?.

In recent years, the Linux Live release model has developed rapidly and is gaining momentum internationally. In the near future, the Live release model will also be a trend of development. This is an objective fact and cannot be argued. Some people say that the USB flash drive is of low capacity, high cost, and inconvenient to use. This is a long-sighted problem. From the perspective of development prospects, these are not problems. From a legal point of view, once a user has the hardware of a computer system and the permission to use a commercial software, if the user unpulls the hard drive line (not to unplug it ), you have full right to run other operating systems on this computer, such as Linux. In this case, should this user be a Windows user or a Linux user? This is not easy to clarify. In short, Linux is wise to stay away from hard drives according to China's specific national conditions.

Note: no one will deny this because Linux is not GNU/Linux (free software) for the national team. Therefore, Linux of the national team should not take the Live development path. it is necessary to fight hard with Microsoft to grab the hard disk. In our country, the grass-roots Linux team has no one to feed and lacks strength. we can only go Live (away from hard drives) to survive.
