# Internet Archive ## Identification [[GNU GRUB|GRUB]], [[LILO|LILO]], and [[SYSLINUX|SYSLINUX]] are Linux boot loaders; [[LZO|LZO]] is a fast compression algorithm. [[Internet Archive|Internet Archive]], [[Linux Kernel Archives|kernel.org]], and [[Oregon State University Open Source Lab|OSUOSL]] are sources for historical software, kernels, or hosted open-source projects. ## Notebook evidence - [[Scanned_20260730-1719#PDF page 60 — Shells, startup mute, kernel-image lineage, boot loaders, and archives|PDF page 60: Shells, startup mute, kernel-image lineage, boot loaders, and archives]] — The page builds a provenance trail: understand the compressed kernel, identify its boot loader, then find archived distributions and upstream sources. The startup-mute command shows the same NVRAM control applied to a small user-facing behavior. - [[Scanned_20260730-1719#PDF page 61 — Open-source institutions, global IT vendors, and Unix variants|PDF page 61: Open-source institutions, global IT vendors, and Unix variants]] — The page maps software lineage to institutions that standardize, archive, host, sell, or operate it. Geography may describe vendor headquarters, service regions, or a search filter rather than technical location. ## Relationships and overlays The source places this note in a shared evidence cluster with [[GNU GRUB|GNU GRUB]] · [[HPE GreenLake|HPE GreenLake]] · [[ibiblio|ibiblio]] · [[IRIX|IRIX]] · [[LILO|LILO]] · [[Linux Kernel Archives|Linux Kernel Archives]] · [[LZO|LZO]] · [[Novell NetWare|Novell NetWare]] · [[Oregon State University Open Source Lab|Oregon State University Open Source Lab]] · [[SYSLINUX|SYSLINUX]] · [[The Open Group|The Open Group]]. Within the larger collection, this evidence extends [[Vendor-Agnostic Recovery|vendor-agnostic recovery]] and [[Continuity Architecture|continuity architecture]] by showing how software, hardware, identity, and pre-OS control depend on recoverable interfaces. ## Evidentiary status and open leads For archived images, capture publisher, release date, checksum/signature, architecture, and boot method. A downloadable ISO is not authenticated merely because it is old. ## Source - [[Scanned_20260730-1719|Scanned_20260730-1719]]
