From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What am I seeing here exactly?
Its osmc updating on the veroV
Assuming this output is indeed NOT from a HDMI or other external display input. This seems to be a some kind of Whiptail UI on the command line, it's showing an update of systemd package unpacking (after the package is downloaded) on ARM platform. TV seems to be of the brand Element, never heard about it TBH. Systemd is used today by many Linux distros as a replacement of the traditional init-scripts. No other information is present in either the screenshot or the description.
