The rest of the chapter is devoted to installing Ubuntu. There's also a 'notebook' tab to record observations as you progress, as well as a scrolling transcript below each video if you prefer to read ahead.Ĭhapter one begins by talking about Linux file systems, such as ext4, and explaining them in the context of file systems familiar to Windows and Mac users. The topics covered are neatly laid out on the left-hand side, with an icon next to each section to show videos you've already viewed. Lynda itself gives the course a very concise and compact look and feel. There's also a guide to creating some practice files to work with, meaning there's no need to download anything separately from the Lynda website. The instructor begins by explaining that he is using Ubuntu 16.04 in a virtual machine and will show you how to do the same. The course is divided into three broad chapters. Virtually all the commands mentioned will work on any Debian-based distribution of Linux in any case. The selection of OS is logical, as Ubuntu is widely considered as an excellent choice for beginners. Unlike many of the other training courses we’ve recently reviewed, the instructor has chosen to focus on one Linux OS only. Note that estimates that the Essential Commands (Ubuntu) course takes just over two hours to complete, so if you're only interested in the one course, you can theoretically subscribe and cancel your subscription within the trial period. Whichever option you choose, there's a 10-day free trial. Subscriptions are either annual ($300 for the year – around £230) or monthly ($29.95 per month – around £23). Premium subscribers can store course materials offline, as well as download practice materials.
