Blurb: “This Linux book is a practical guide that lets you explore the power of the Linux command-line interface. Starting with the history of Linux, you'll quickly progress to the Linux filesystem hierarchy and learn a variety of basic Linux commands. You'll then understand how to make use of the extensive Linux documentation and help tools. The book shows you how to manage users and groups, and takes you through the process of installing and managing software on Linux systems. As you advance, you'll discover how you can interact with Linux processes, and troubleshoot network problems, before learning the art of writing bash scripts and automating administrative tasks with Cron jobs. In addition to this, you'll get to create your own Linux commands and analyze various disk management techniques.“ | Blurb: “This Linux book is a practical guide that lets you explore the power of the Linux command-line interface.

- | That said, this is not a ‘read’ book but a ‘do’ book. You gain nothing from reading the book alone. This book covers about 100 bash commands, and a few pages on editors and other packages.

- | I am going to pick a spot and tell you what is there and what is missing. Under the heading: “Corrupting and fixing filesystems”, you are shown how to corrupt a filesystem and how to fix it. What you are *not told, is why you need to unmount the filesystem. You are just told to unmount it. I am a why person; as a kid, I took things apart not only to see what was inside, but why it was the way it was. Once I understood, even more or less what was going on, I could repair it.

- | As this book covers mainly bash commands, it follows that once you have learned these commands, a good idea would be to bring it all together in bash scripting at the end. Maybe do something useful or “real world” examples, like automating docker or something. One would think, but the scripting is squirrelled away in the middle somewhere, and has “hello friend” and “hello world” over it instead of scripts deploying users or filling a database with dummy info or whatnot. The exercises at the end of each chapter are short ‘n silly, like a few true/false questions. I did not really care for them. As for “creating your own Linux commands”, | + | |

It is not quite a “reference” book either, and not as quick as “Learn Linux in 24hrs”. What I did like was that the book did not have four warnings and four tip blocks per page – breaking your stride, which is why I like Packt and No Starch Press books. | ||

At the end of the day, the book teaches you bash commands with some sides, like meat and salad, no veggies or starch. It does not do what it says on the label. Grab this book on discount for a fiver, but I would not pay full price for it. | At the end of the day, the book teaches you bash commands with some sides, like meat and salad, no veggies or starch.
