When I use this command:



root:~# systemctl


Output is:



System has not been booted with systemd as init system (PID 1). Can't operate


This problem occurred in "Kali Linux" and "Debian 9"
How can I resolve this problem?




systemd

    That means that the system is running with sysvinit rather than systemd. What are you trying to do? I.e., what do you need to use systemctl for?

  • @StephenKitt I would like to start any package with systemctl, like: systectl openvas start

To start and stop services without having to worry about which init system is in use, you should use service:



service openvas start


will use whatever command is appropriate to start the openvas service.

  • That means that there is no openvas service (no /etc/init.d/openvas in your case). Is there?

  • Unfortunately it’s not as simple as that, you can’t turn a program into a service by linking it in /etc/init.d. You need to write (or find) an init script for OpenVAS, or a systemd unit (and switch to systemd).

How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
