Description

Linux Servers book shows how to set up common services like a web server, a name server, a database server, a DHCP server, a file server and more. You have choices about when and how to install Linux. You can leave it on a disc or USB drive and boot it up whenever you want to play with it. Play with it several times until you’re sure you want to install it. You can try several Linux distributions in this way—you can even re-use the same USB drive. Wait until the installation is done and then move on to installing the necessary graphics drivers. How To Install Graphics Drivers Windows is still on my computer too and runs just like it always did in the other partition; I simply choose switching to LXQt, a slimmed down desktop more appropriate for the older and lower-powered machines (such as netbooks) for which Lubuntu was originally designed.

In those cases, you can use your live USB drive as a rescue media. To do so, reconnect the bootable USB to your computer and boot into the live environment. Once there, configure the time, keymaps, and fonts if you want to. On the command line, look in the /media You may need to use mount /media/cdrom, /media/dvdrom, or some other variant. If you’re ever confused about where you are in the navigation tree, remember you can always run the pwd command to find your current directory. Many modern shells (including Bash, the default for many Linux distributions) also indicate your current directory, as exhibited in the example commands throughout this section. File Manipulation If someone has been using Linux for some time and is aware of the basics, they might want to go to the next level.But some software may still read the /etc/hosts file directly. Open the file in nano and add the following lines to it: 127.0.0.1 localhost Then use fdisk to list out all your partitions and locate the one holding your Arch Linux installation. In my case it's the /dev/sda2 partition. Mount the partition like you did before: mount /dev/sda2 /mnt The rest of the drive (orange) right is used for common files (music, photos, documents, and so on) that I Remember to replace /dev/sda with what you have. If the device has a previously created partition table, then cfdisk will directly show the list of partitions. Otherwise you'll get to choose a partition table type to begin with: The root user has its own home directory specified by the FHS: /root/. Note that / is referred to as the “root directory”, and that it is different from root/, which is stored within /.

Virtual Network Computing, or VNC, is a connection system that allows you to use your keyboard and mouse to interact with a graphical desktop environment on a remote server. It makes managing files, software, and settings on a remote server easier for users who are not yet comfortable with the command line. Installing VNC on an Ubuntu 20.04 server requires you to set up a VNC server with TightVNC and connect to it securely through an SSH tunnel. Then, you’ll use a VNC client program on your local machine to interact with your server. Apart from the locales, if you've made any changes to your console keymaps in the first step of installation, you may want to persist them now. To do so, open the /etc/vconsole.conf file and add your preferred keymaps there. If you plan to use a remote server to follow this guide, we encourage you to first complete our Initial Server Setup guide. Doing so will set you up with a secure server environment — including a non- root user with sudo privileges and a firewall configured with UFW — which you can use to build your Linux skills. The TerminalThe answer to “how do I learn Linux” depends on what kind of Linux knowledge you are seeking. And for this purpose, I have collected a bunch of free Linux resources that you could use for learning Linux. Best free Linux ebooks In the end, consider sharing the resources with others, because In open source, we feel strongly that to really do something well, you have to get a lot of people involved. — Linus Torvalds For the most part, the wiki should have the information you're looking for. In fact, if you're on a laptop and having difficulty getting something to work, there is an entire wiki category dedicated to different laptops. So look around the wiki. Just for Fun: The Story of an Accidental Revolutionary by Linus Torvalds and David Diamond. HarperCollins, 2002. Torvalds tells the story of Linux in his own words.
