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.

The simplest way is to trace it on the starllite imagery available on the editor built-in to osm.org. If it's not visible there, here is the wiki's list of Android apps that can record GPS tracks, and it's not hard to find the other pages on the wiki about getting those off your phone and into the map. Some of those apps can probably do that bit for you, I've just never tried
You have to use data you created yourself. It is not allowed to use proprietary data from Google. If you use Android, then the Vespucci app may help you. Allows to log the way and then directly add it.
