Adds all 6 ROOT 01 modules (how computers run software, the shell, filesystem navigation, files & text, processes, users & permissions foundations), each with a real lesson, demonstration/guided exercise, knowledge check where warranted, a hands-on Lab, and a reflection — 35 activities, 29 new content files. Adds 6 new hands-on Linux scenarios (linux-inspect-hardware, linux-shell-basics, linux-filesystem-navigation, linux-files-and-text, linux-process-management, linux-permissions-foundations) plus 2 MCQ scenarios, using the existing generic scenario/ validation engine (docs/ROOT_FOUNDATIONS_LAB_STRATEGY.md §1) — every one tested end-to-end via the real scenario setup/validate API, including negative tests confirming they correctly FAIL when not actually solved (e.g. the process-management scenario fails while the target process is still running; the permissions scenario is tested against a real `su - labuser` denial). Wires rootnode-linux-foundations-assessment (2 required + 4 random-draw scenarios) using the existing Phase 3B assessment engine. Adds a real, server-side ROOT 01->02->03->04->05 course prerequisite chain (courses.prerequisites) — verified live on two students: one who completed ROOT 01 sees ROOT 02 unlock; a fresh student sees ROOT 02 correctly locked while 03/04/05 stay vacuously satisfied (their own prerequisite courses are still empty). ROOT 06+ and the Capstone are unaffected. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <[email protected]>

# Reflection: You Just Stopped a Real Process, Not a Simulation
|
|
|
|
## Reflection questions
|
|
|
|
1. Before checking `kill -0` after your `kill`, how confident were you the process was
|
|
actually gone? What would you have done if it hadn't stopped?
|
|
2. Why do you think SIGTERM-before-SIGKILL matters more for a real production service than for
|
|
a throwaway script in a Lab?
|
|
|
|
## Real Ops takeaway
|
|
|
|
**"I ran the kill command" is not the same as "I confirmed the process is gone."** This module's
|
|
Lab required you to verify state, not just take an action and assume it worked — that
|
|
verification step is exactly what separates a confident operator from someone hoping for the
|
|
best. You'll repeat this exact pattern (act, then verify) constantly for the rest of ROOT_,
|
|
starting as soon as ROOT 04's containers and continuing all the way through Kubernetes
|
|
troubleshooting.
|
|
|
|
This module is complete. Continue to the next module.

## Instructor Notes
|
|
|
|
**Discussion questions for a live classroom:** question 2 is a good bridge to ROOT 06's later
|
|
discussion of graceful shutdown/`terminationGracePeriodSeconds` — plant the idea now without
|
|
naming Kubernetes specifics yet.
|
|
|
|
**Approximate timing:** 5-8 minutes live discussion; 5 minutes self-paced writing.
