0.1: Linux is what you want??
There is no "best computer" or "best OS" in this world: this is completely regarded.
Demand, I don't like Mac (sin :): It is really easy to use, but I still like it.
PC helps me complete some things. (Try to do the same thing as Dir / S / W> LST on Mac), for many people
The Mac is just "best" computer. Similarly, I don't think Linux is the best OS: Obviously,
Linux is better than Win95, but many people still like the latter (Win95).
The main appeal object of UN * X is a programming designer and scientist, while Mac & Win is for general use.
By
Designed. Therefore, Linux is enough to provide a vast sky - if you need Compilers, Net
road,
And academic experimental nature of the software, and you also like three not five times to repair your Linux: In other words, you like
On the other hand, if you have a dialog box that helps you complete all things, you need to use the commercial suites.
Or, or say, you have a loss of the prompt number of the command ... Then you still die early ...: P
Next, you will see you. But before this, you can remind one: Linux and DOS / Windows are available in the same
Corpaple on your computer.
0.2: This is what I want !! Please tell me more!!
Now, suppose you have installed Linux. According to the installation step, you should have an account (if
Not like this, please refer to the 6.1 section). Now your Linux is already in operation. Maybe someone has already told
You, all the software you need is already in the system, and what you should do is login. At this time you type
login
Name, Password, then two eyes facing the screen - "Okay, but come again?"
Don't be disappointed .. You can complete your work in DOS, even more. Imagine that you are facing now.
Not Linux, but DOS. At this time, you should make the following work:
1. Execution process; establish, copy, edit the file or change the file name - maintenance file;
2. Establish, delete, or beat between the directory - maintain the directory;
3. Format the magnetic sheet and then back up the file - disk processing;
4. Repairing autoexec.bat and config.sys - system maintenance;
5. Write your own program, may be .bat or qbasic - program processing;
6.. Is there any other ?. ?? :)
You must be very happy to know that the above thing can be done as under Linux, and the methods and DOS are extremely similar.
Under DOS, the general user uses the command only a few of the orders provided in the system - Linux
The same is true. Here, if you are not familiar with the relevant DOS commands of the above six points, please pay first ..
Go to the DOS manual. In the next discussion, this article will not be a directory or PATH.
What is going to explain.
Some precautions before continuing to discuss:
1) Unlike DOS, Linux has some built-in system security mechanism. In you open the PC power supply and start
After Linux, you must "log in", which is to make the system know that you are about to use the system; this is because
For un * x is OS used by many people. In addition, the general user does not have this computer (all resources);
Users who use root to do Login are real owners (this person is the so-called system manager,
On your own PC, you are root; each file and directory have the definition of access rights, which makes some
The file cannot be accessed by general users. On the other hand, DOS cannot provide these protection - you can access the whole
Hard disc.
2) Once you end your work is to shut down, please * don't cut off the PC's power! On the contrary, this must pass one
Some legitimate programs (Press Ctrl-Alt-Del, wait until the system is checked, tell you OK,
Take the power supply). From another perspective, Linux is a very stable system. You don't have to worry that once there is a wrong application, it will cause the system to hang up, forced you to press the RESET button: P
3) We are very encouraged to try more to experiment: please rest assured that this will not harm the system (PS. Prerequisite is you
Not try to use root). You can make the following instructions later to get the following instructions ($ is standard
Tip number, and # 是 ot 专用:
$ HELP
(Quite logic), or want more messages:
$ Man
Here, if you have installed Man Pages, then this will be associated with
(the original word of Man) Page is printed. You can also try this:
$ APROPOS
or
$ Whatis
4) General rules (Help, Man ..etc)
a) <...> indicates that the parameters must be given, [...] can be available. For example:
$ tar -tf
File.TAR must be specified, but the RedIr (re-directed output) is not added.
b) The following "RMP" means "Read The Man Pages for Further Information" - "Please see Man
".
