a.
AWS and WSL
b.

All of the above

None of the above

I choose c but it feedback as incorrect. But, AI said the answer is C:

The correct answer is:
c. All of the above

---

Explanation

Let's review each option:

• a. AWS and WSL:

  • On AWS, you can install a Linux GUI (like GNOME or KDE) on EC2 instances and access it via remote desktop tools (VNC, RDP, or NICE DCV).
  • On WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux), especially WSL2 and Windows 11, you can run Linux GUI applications natively using WSLg.

• b. VMware Workstation Player and Oracle VirtualBox:

  • Both are virtualization platforms where you can install a full Linux distribution with a desktop environment (GUI) just like you would on a physical machine.

Because all of the above options support a Linux GUI,
the correct answer is:

c. All of the above

If your previous answer was marked incorrect, it may have been a grading mistake, as "c" is the accurate answer for this question.

Hello, besides rectifying the anwser for the exam you need to correct information in the ch. 4 Linux Installation/ Using AWS or WSL/WSL2. It is stated there that AWS/ WSL doesn’t give access to GUI.

Hi @malena34

Thank you for flagging this. We have updated the details about WSL and AWS in chapter 4 and replaced the GUI-related question with a different one.
