Task 3: Creating a Sample Hard Drive Image book.img
Add a new (virtual) hard drive of capacity 2GiB to your Kali Linux VM.
Create a FAT filesystem on the hard drive using mkfs. fat. Be careful to use your new 2GiB drive! It would be a
good idea to use 1sblk to verify the block device name before proceeding.
Mount the new hard drive at a mount point of your choice.
Find a book from Project Gutenberg by an author whose last name begins with the same letter as your last name
(look under "Browsing Options" and then "Authors" A-Z).
Download the plain text UTF-8 and ensure it is saved into your mounted drive (it should be saved within the
mount point directory). For example, using The Royal Guide to Wax Flower Modelling by Emma Peachey (a
cracking read, no doubt) we can download the plain text file using:
- Is FD A a partial or transitive dependency?- Is FD B a partial or transitive dependency?- Is FD C a partial or transitive dependency?- In what normal form is the relation Parking Tables?- Convert the relation Parking Tables to a set of 3NF relations.

Can you deduce (guess) what the network subnet masks are? Explain while providing subnet mask bits for each subnet mask. [Hint: Look at the addresses in binary and consider the host ids] To assume that the network addresses are correct, we take a look at the network ID and IP addresses. Take 20.0.0.0/8, we have an /8 prefix which is Class A, that provide us with 255.0.0.0. This means that there are 24 host bits while the network bits are 8. When compared to the IP address 20.255.0.7, we can perform an additional operation with the subnet mask giving us 20.0.0.0. The same happened with 20.0.0.89, which we also got 20.0.0.0. Therefore, these two IP addresses fall within the respective /8 subnet. For 200.100.10.0/30, the /30 is Class C with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.252, meaning 30 network bits and only two host bits. When applying the subnet mask and the IP addresses…arrow_forwardIt is possible to sort an array of n values using pipeline of n filter processes.The first process inputs all the values one at a time, keep the minimum, and passes the others on to the next process.

Each process Filter[i] (where 0 <= i <= n-2) receives a stream of integers through channelvalue[i], keeps the smallest, and sends all other integers to channel value[i+1].

Can you deduce (guess) what the network subnet masks are? Explain while providing subnet mask bits for each subnet mask. [Hint: Look at the addresses in binary and consider the host ids]arrow_forwardI would like to know if my answer statment is correct? My answer: The main difference is how routes are created and maintained across different networks. Static routing establishes router connections to different networks from the far left and far right. The Dynamic routing focus emphasizes immediate connection within the router while ignoring the other connections from different networks. Furthermore, the static routing uses the subnet mask to define networks such as 25.0.0.0/8, 129.60.0.0/16, and 200.100.10.0/30, which correspond to 255.0.0.0, 255.255.0.0, and 255.255.255.252. On the other hand, dynamic routing uses the wildcard mask to inverse the subnet mask, where network bits become 0 and host bits become 1, giving us 0.0.0.255, 0.0.255.255, and 0.0.0.3. Most importantly, the CLI commands used for Static and Dynamic routing are also different. For static routing, the “IP route” corresponds with the network, subnet mask, and next-hop IP address. In contrast, dynamic routing uses…arrow_forward
