Why does a C program compiled on Windows not run on Linux even when they both may be running on the same type of processor ?
If a machine has both Linux and Windows, can you browse the Linux files when booted to Windows? Is the converse possible?
What is the most distinctive thing about Linux?
In which language/languages is Linux written?
Name 2 open source databases for Linux

kenfcamp - Not being able to find files is a proximate cause for failure, but I suspect this homework question is looking for the ultimate cause.
sandipmurmu - One of the reasons you're not getting many responses in this otherwise high traffic topic is that EE has a policy of not giving out homework answers. We can help by trying to lead you in the right direction, but don't answer the questions outright.
Note that a 16-bit DOS EXE created with, say MSVC 1.52, will run under Linux. Does that give you any ideas?
As far as what Linux is written, well, see if you can't find the source to the Linux kernel somewhere.

Linux and windows are written in same processor language (Assembly) but they have introduced different memory accessing function and device control function. Both have different commands in binaries to do same job. so using a windows binary will not interpret correctly for linux and vice-versa
Hows That!

Actually, a c program 'can' be compiled that will run on either machine, but
for FIVE questions, only 20 points each, for one who abandons questions so consistently, I think I'll pass on providing any more

I dont do it so I can't say for sure if you can read the linux partition under windows, but you should be able to mount the windows partition under Linux
> In which language/languages is Linux written?
huh?? If you are asking what languages are compatible under linux (perl, c, c+, python, and many more)
> Name 2 open source databases for Linux
http://www.google.com could have answered these questions very easily..
I'll give you one "mysql"
