Linux for Beginners

An Introduction to the Linux Operating System and Command Line

De: Jason Cannon

Narrado por: Brian E. Smith

If you want to learn how to use Linux, but don't know where to start, listen on.

Knowing where to start when learning a new skill can be a challenge, especially when the topic seems so vast. There can be so much information available that you can't even decide where to start. Or worse, you start down the path of learning and quickly discover too many concepts, commands, and nuances that aren't explained. This kind of experience is frustrating and leaves you with more questions than answers.

Linux for Beginners doesn't make any assumptions about your background or knowledge of Linux. You need no prior knowledge to benefit from this audiobook. You will be guided step by step using a logical and systematic approach. As new concepts, commands, or jargon are encountered, they are explained in plain language, making it easy for anyone to understand.

Here is what you will learn by listening to Linux for Beginners:

• How to get access to a Linux server if you don't already
• What a Linux distribution is and which one to choose
• What software is needed to connect to Linux from Mac and Windows computers
• What SSH is and how to use it, including creating and using SSH keys
• The file system layout of Linux systems and where to find programs, configurations, and documentation
• The basic Linux commands you'll use most often
• Creating, renaming, moving, and deleting directories
• Listing, reading, creating, editing, copying, and deleting files
• Exactly how permissions work and how to decipher the most cryptic Linux permissions with ease
• How to use the nano, vi, and emacs editors
• Two methods to search for files and directories

What you learn in Linux for Beginners applies to any Linux environment including Ubuntu, Debian, Linux Mint, RedHat, Fedora, OpenSUSE, Slackware, and more.

Perfect for amateurs with a bit of background knowledge.

Teaches basics and gives enough so anyone could be set up for success

Great book

I’m studying for my Linux + certification and needed an audiobook to help me get more familiar with Linux on the go. Great book to get familiar with some of the commands, and terms used when talking about the Linux OS. I’d recommend it if you want a quick run through of Linux and how it works.

Amazing!

Easier to maintain the knowledge after listening than just reading the same material. Awesome narration!

Great audiobook if you immerse yourself in Linux

I used Solaris/IRIX in the 90's and I use Git Bash today. The parts of this book that "clicked" covered areas I've used before -- vi, ls, chmod. The parts outside of my experience motivated me to purchase the Kindle version of this book as a companion reference.

I appreciate the brevity of the book. Even as an audiobook, it still makes clear what one can do with Linux. I just need to cement that understanding with deliberate practice.

very informative 👏

the book was very informative, with the command lines, and down to the description of the command. I would recommend this book
