very helpful intro to Linux. specially for non-tech computer users. helped me to understand Unix, Ubuntu and their functions and peculiarities. thanks for the info.
Hi, thank you for the great introduction to Linux! It is very good. I have been using Linux for just under a year. I am an older guy (71) and don't have the memory that I use too. I was able to make a live bootable USB flash drive following Linux Mints instruction. I tried it out on an old Dell laptop computer that came with Windows 7 that did not work after being upgraded to Windows 10. It worked great so I installed Linux Mint 19.3 on it. I never had to use the command line. After using Linux Mint on the old Dell and really liking it, I have installed Linux Mint 20 on my main Dell Laptop as a dual boot. I am excited about Linux. I am learning the command line a little. As of late I have looked at other Distros to see what Desktop, file manager and what text editors they come with. Thanks again! I will be watching the rest of your videos.
I once upon a time had Windows 7 and Linux Mint installed on my hard drives, and it was easy to do, Windows was on the drive first, then I downloaded the Linux Mint ISO file and burned the ISO to USB Thumb Drive, then I restarted my computer, choosing to start from the USB Thumb Drive, Linux Mint opened and I chose to install it. During the Install operation, It got to the screen where it said Install Linux Mint Beside Windows or Format disk and install. I chose the first option. It went on to create a Partition on my hard drive and install the Linux Mint os in that partition. at the end of the install, the OS asked me to restart the computer, so I did. After the BIOS screen a screen that allowed me to choose which Operating system I wanted to run, windows or Linux Mint. These days I have a New Computer, and I have on it Linux mint 20.1 Cinnamon, Ubuntu Studio, and Storm OS. Windows OS no longer are welcome on my computer
I think Linux Mint is a much better choice over Ubuntu for new Linux users. In fact I have found that most of those who try Linux and get discouraged and give up, started on Ubuntu. I would not recommend it to anyone.
Linux is not an OS. Linux is just the kernel. The OS to which you refer is GNU. One does not 'learn' Linux. Although one can learn GNU - which is a clone of UNIX.
I think I just found where to start, being windows guys.. everything else was bouncer but this one finally clicked for me since it compares point to point.. Good job
This tutorial is among the best. A tutorial that includes each and every feature and explains every command and nuance can be overwhelming. A reference book is often better for that purpose! This tutorial has the perfect balance for a beginner, enough to understand, appreciate and use Linux. Thanks for an excellent job.
The cat command is used in the way you describe. But you should perhaps explain just WHAT it does. cat stands for concatenate. It prints the contents of all listed files, in order, to stdout. If no file is given, then it uses stdin as it's source. That's literally all it does. And that's where linux's power comes in. Because everything is a file, you can use it to display a single file, display multiple files, create files, read files into other programs' stdin, read files into another file or any other thing that involves reading a file and dumping it's content somewhere. cat can be used on any file (except directories and links to directories). And that includes binary files. You can concat them, or display them on the terminal. It will be a garbled mess of course, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't work. Telling people how to do something specific is nice and all. But if you explain why it works, people can use that knowledge to derive solutions for similar problems. For example: Don't say "Press CTRL + D to finish input" Instead say: "Pressing CTRL + D inserts an End of File character that lets cat know that the end of the file has been reached. Because everything is a file, including your typed stuff, cat works on that like it would any other file." By using > you are invoking a shell feature that is not needed for cat. By using it you are not using cat alone. This can be seen for example if you use sudo cat > newfile. The new file will be owned by the owner of the shell, not root. To read from stdin and write to a file you should specify the file "-", which is often a shorthand for stdin. cat only works with stdin by default if you don't provide any other filenames. You should perhaps also mention the convention that if a program says nothing to you, then it was successful. It has nothing to do with bash. The programs themselves determine when they speak to you, not the CLI you run them from. The CLI may suppress messages, but that would be stupid, and none that I know do that (unless you ask them to).
Thanks for wonderful step by step training, also music is not annoying, I use hands free, tutorial is high quality step by step in detail. looking for your more videos, Thanks
Thanks for the Tutorial. In this tutorial, I have understood: 1. What Linux OS and how it differs from .Windows and OSX. 2. What you can do with the Linux OS 3. What shell, terminal, bash, CLI and GUI and how one can use them to accomplish specfic task in Linux OS. 3. The different COMMANDS used to accomplish the tasks on Linux CLI. 4. How to administer users - create, add, delete etc. 5. How to create files, do various operations on them and how everything in Linux OS is treated as file. I have further expanded my understanding using cheetshite. I recommend that you provide us with hand on project to go and exercise the knowledge we have acquired. If anyone knows good hands on project that helps hone the Linux skills, please suggust. Thanks for sharing us this lesson.
This is exactly what I need - Linux from general to details for Beginners. Everything was explained clearly and easily to apply right away. Thank you so much!

The music didn't bother me at all...I found your tutorial to awesome and well explained...thank you so much for the step by step method...a lot of the other videos are very confusing and disorganized.
i appreciate your efforts...the video is really so useful for me .. i learn some commands from it ....thank you so much keep uploading such videos ...i am eager to watch your useful videos...
Guru99, dear friend. I am making software Intrinsic connections. I have a little bit of CS Hardware Fundamentals, "Not, extremely Cool/Badass(ALU). I'm trying to connect so many functions/Library's upon Library's . I am seeking a "Knowledge Base for a new future. I am Weak in Software?

Really a game of Doers & Actors?
At 49:00 *Right-Click* will do the same. *Ctrl-L* will also clear the screen! *FORGET* *vi,* use *nano* vi is too cryptic! Or, install *joe* if you want to edit more than 1 file at a time. joe is equal to the old DOS program: *WordStar.* Very Cool!!

Is GNU/Linux, not just linux, Linus Torval only created the kernel, Richard Stallman the gnu applications so the right way to call it is GNU/Linux, or linux cus is more easy to say it, but the right name is GNU/Linux. created by Richard Stallamen the GNU developer, and Linus Torval the kernel developer.
To motivate those beginners to learn something constructively is never easy,because the failure make those beginners fear to start to learn and begin the new chapter.Thank you for such a good lecturer to support building a better life for all individuals. Keep going,feel like to learn now and future.Thanks a lot.
I am so poor, & I have connected so "Many Pictures?", you understand. Math (Differential Equations & Statistics = "Easy" = True) Please, " I Am Just Passing Through". Extremely Complex?
Free is not as in free beer. Free is as in free to modify and use with no permission required. Much of Linux and the multitudinous desktop distributions are distributed with no or low cost. Linux is not a clone of Unix. That would be a better description of BSD. It is more properly a stepchild of Unix, Kernel and utilities are similar to, but differently written software than in Unix. Many utilities were written by Richard Stallman, and the programmers that joined the GNU project. Therefore, linux can be more properly called GNU-Linux. Without the GNU part, it would have likely died out long ago. They are equal partners.
I can honestly say I am never looking back to Windows. However,,, I have no experience with Linux and no experience coding at all. to add to my challenge I want very much to learn to navigate the command line interface? Sorry I most likely have those names wrong. I'm definitely not satisfied just pointing and clicking a mouse on a desktop. Did I mention my old laptop still has windows 7 on it. iI
I have been using Linux for years now both Manjaro, Mint. In recent months however, First in Manjaro then in Mint v21 There has been a change in the kernel which has completely broken network connections to other machines, Linux, Windows and even my NAS. I was using hardwired mounts in the fstab file which worked very well. It stopped working a few months ago with Manjaro and now also in Mint 21. I have looked on many occasions for a solution to this and have seen a few different suggestions and none work. Samba has been broken for years and is not an option. So I have had to stay with Mint 20.3 as it works fine. It will be supported until 2025. So for anyone needing network connections to other shares, this is a problem. So, with all the reviews of Linux new distros no one is talking about the elephant in the room, broken network connections. To many users this problem makes Linux unuseable moving forward. Hopefully someone will figure out a reliable workaround and not 6 pages of edits to multiple config files. We need an app that allows you to find and auto mount your network shares that is easy for all users. I hate windows but... the networking works well.
T H A N K YOU ,,,so much. For this great Tutorial. Best step-by-step Tutorial thanks to you I'm learning How not to fear LINUX CLI Commands. I'm lo inglés it. And IT is never to late to Learn anything
Is there away to make a autorun usb drive to run with out enabling administrator like it does when you plug in your usb drive for your cordless keyboard and mouse. Is that even possible.... your the best technician hacker on RU-vid... I've liked and subscribe/share. Please help.
نسخة من يونيكس كيف ؟ هل أنت جاهل أم ماذا ؟ لينكس له نواة مختلفة كلياً عن يونكس يا رجل ،، إقرأ جيداً ثم تكلم . نعم النظام يسير وفق نفس المنهاج لكن ليس نسخه منه أيها الرجل .
win sysadmin here going to transition to linux slowly full time was wondering what's the best distro now ? need stability as a daily driver to work like programming etc looked in kubuntu, mint, manjaro, fedora, zorin os, mx linux, centos, and a few others not sure what to choose... I am asking this because I am worried about the telemetry they are talking about in Ubuntu and Snap some say there is even a KDE telemetry thats op in etc What's your recommendation for the best linux distro without telemetry ?
Best Linux tutorial for a beginner like myself.... I honestly was ready to throw in the towel until I started watching your tutorial. You give good visual demo, then an example, then you follow it up with a recap. Great work
Linux was created as Linus' own personal Os and he wanted an Os. which he can use both at home and school. And at that time, Unix was hardly available. Also, he was using Minix at that time. he started linux as his own personal project and never intended to be publicly available.
not gonna lie, i'm lost and overwhelmed. my last refuge will be to try the bloody thing i guess. i want to like Linux, but hell will freeze over before i learn to code or use the command prompt. I really need a GUI, and with limitless distributions out there, i'm quite at a loss. I'm here because i hate windows, not because i like linux per se.
hi amassing video.......... and i want one moor video for CentOS + CWP + local & online with modem configure, ...... NOT:own PC not a VPS pls. make video....
Linux malware exists! It is in the attutudes of user forum admins & moderators. Which is why I now prefer Mac. Twenty years with those zappers became too much. My peace comes at a price now, but peace I have.
I know you probably didn't start editing these individual videos with the idea of slapping them all together, but holy fuck 2 and a half hour of the same 15 second loop of backgroundmusic makes me want to die
I asked for a remote job, I passed all their challenges but no one gave me a job. Don’t know why. Now, this is the beginning of my journey of wrecking havocs via hacking.
oh... sudo keeps a log... so don't abuse it... Except with sudo you gain root priviliges and can do whatever the fuck you want with the logs. And if you do stuff like sudo bash, the log would say "oh someone used sudo to execute a shell.", giving you no information whatsoever what they do with the root shell.
What makes people think that putting some fucking mind numbing and voice drowning three seconds stock tune as a "soundtrack" to three hours video is a good idea, my fucking God...
The video is titled as being a tutorial. What is this supposed to be? If the viewer happens to be computer savy then there is no need for any tutorial. If however the viewer is just an ordinary user more concerned with actual use of the machine the tutorial makes no sense as an ordinary user has no knowledge of computer language and technical terms. The computer is the most important machine for me and my only concern is the use of this machine and none of the so called tutorials make sense to such as myself. I have not found one single video that instructs a user to actually install component software or operating systems. The vacuum that exists for such a tutorial continues to exist as it is assumed that computers may be serviced by technically qualified personnel which is most certainly not the case. I live and work in a third world country where computer service personnel either just do not exist or are very very expensive to employ. There does not appear to be any effort made to rectify the situation or even whether knowledge of the sorry state of affairs vis a vis third world countries even exists.
17:35 I run the VM, a menu opens and I click "try or install Ubuntu". Afterwards the installation crashes. The iso is linked to the VM. I cannot see the mistake.
Since I support Open Source then Linux will be my choice for my state government computer operating system preference thus reducing the overall Iot cost in a long term.
Wonderful tutorial! Thank you so much, I've been trying to learn Linux but every tutorial gave very long commands of which I wished to understand the syntax and this is just what I needed :)
Pourquoi le titre et la description sont en français alors que la vidéo est en anglais, et même les commentaires sont en anglais, c'est pénible, tout le monde n'est pas bilingue, donc pouce vers le bas, d'ailleurs si il y en a autant c'est peut être pour cette raison.

( sorry I ran on ) great work when things get a little more active ie Managing Processes, If You know I have a problem, I would like to use TLCL 5th Ed online book as a workbook that is must of been very popular 2nd Ed. With I think an owl on the cover. darn wrong kids under 30 will have to look that up "I better eat me some of my spinach", (By Wiliam.... um...see above) It's my goal to have it running on and old laptop . I than follow along on my old desk top. it feels great because I can stop at any point when I have a break through and quickly make notes before I forget or what was thinking. Make notes, questions and bookmark something I am worried about or know I will be back to reference it until I memorize. If I have it right there are a lot of shells that add new commands. I even messed up my system so bad, the commands that used to work don't. worse a lot of the commands the Mr. Shotts used are still giving $ command not recognized try sudo apt-get update xxcal or Xxcal Debian (often another package) up to 4 or 5 more I guess there is no simple answer, as of yesterday I do finally have Manjaro running..! Rather than Ubuntu (a propriety sink hole) that was perma-installed on my old imac for 3.7 months.ccident "...Linux distribution can be ridiculously easy or ridiculously difficult depending on your hardware.

My notes: 1:25:34 Regex How to train: Get dictionary (like list of popular words), and a random text. Learn regex syntax (from documentation). Create scripts that will count occurrences of each word from text. Grep words that wasn't in the dictionary. Add words to that dictionary. Create script of unique word combination (like CuteBearHero). Advanced: password validation and using regex in problem solving Commands: top - shows running processes pidof - finds PID of program (usefull to shutdown that program/process) kill - kills

Could you please give me a link for a video instructing in ordinary English the process of installing Linux Mint that a totally non technical , noncomputer savvy user would be able to follow. My search for such a video or post or article seems to indicate that no such exists, but I could be hopefully wrong. Thank you should you be able to help me out.
