+# Kernel
+
+The [Linux](/wiki/linux.md) kernel is an open-source Unix-like computer operating system kernel.
+
+## Versions
+
+There are a few possible kernel version.
+
+### Stable-Version: `linux`
+
+The stable version of the [Linux](/wiki/linux.md) kernel can usually be found in a package called
+`linux` and is usually installed from the start or in the recommended setup.
+
+### Zen-Version: `linux-zen`
+
+The zen kernel is a collaborative project of kernel hackers to provide the best
+[Linux](/wiki/linux.md) kernel for everyday systems.
+Especially the response time of the system under load
+[is said to be better](https://github.com/zen-kernel/zen-kernel/wiki/Detailed-Feature-List#zen-kernel-improvements).
+This will - for example - make the system less stuttery when something is compiled.
+Desktop and gaming systems will benefit the most.
+
+To setup the zen kernel do the following. Firstly install the packages `linux-zen` and
+`linux-zen-header`.
+Afterwards open the file `boot/loader/entries/arch.conf` and change the following lines. 
+
+```txt 
+linux /vmlinuz-linux
+initrd /initramfs-linux.img
+```
+
+To look like the following lines.
+
+```txt
+linux /vmlinuz-linux-zen
+initrd /initramfs-linux-zen.img
+```
+
+Afterwards the system should be rebooted for the change to take effect.
