Linux Operating System

A session about Linux operating system was started off by Mr. Fransisco. guiding us to install the Linux operating system on our laptops. The purpose of downloading the Linux operating system is to interact with programs through the commands line; this is because we are going to interact with the programs without the graphical user interface (GUI) as well as using the commands that we are going to write on the terminal to automate everything.

I have tried to install a virtual machine but it does not work. So, I started working with a life version through USB to catch up with the others. And then, after I got back home I installed the Linux on the hard disk as a second operating system.

Basic Commands

The basic commands that we have used a lot on the terminal are:

  • sudo apt-get update : Updating all the Ubuntu packages.
  • sudo apt-get upgrade : Upgrading all the software to the latest version.
  • sudo apt install : To install softwares.
  • cd : To change directory.
  • ls : To list the contents of the current directory.
  • mkdir : To make a directory.
  • touch : make file.
  • rm: remove file.
  • rmdir : remove directory.

Downloading softwares

Mr. Fransisco has told us that there are to ways for downloading softwares on linux operating system:

  • Using the command line on the terminal by running the following commands:
    • add PPA .
    • Update sources.sudo apt-get update.
    • install. sudo apt-get install.
  • By the A Icon (Ubuntu Software).
