    Ah, I misunderstood your last post. I apologize.

    Fortunately, Linux can be used without GNU. If it is not, that is simply because GNU is the most popular choice for many system utilities. The fact that people like it better with GNU (for some system utilities) does not make GNU an essential part of the OS, only a popular choice.
