A few points:-
  • You have a mixture of Linux and linux and your code does not cater for that
  • You are only doing one substitution, and will (if it works) leave you with linux for everything.
  • Linux and Unix are not strictly the same.
Maybe consider either three steps (convert unix to @@@@@@, convert linux to unix and then convert @@@@@@ to linux) or a sed script file to do both updates.
