Learn Linux in a weekend!

This course is for you if you need basic training in Linux, but don’t have much time to learn it. Perhaps you already work in IT and want to add a new skill, but your tight schedule makes it hard to fit in a full class. Perhaps you are staying up late to read about Linux, or stealing time from your lunch break to learn it. With this video class, you spend just a few hours on Saturday and Sunday to learn all the Linux commands and procedures you need to start using Linux at work on Monday!

Saturday starts with the basics

• Installing everything you need to set up your working environment, including Oracle Virtual Box and the graphical terminal program Putty

• Getting oriented to the Linux file system and directories

• Commands for creating and navigating files, setting permissions, getting help

• And more!

• Commands for file maintenance and display

• System commands for maintenance, monitoring, updates, and system utilities

• Working with text and text editors

• Shell scripting

• Networking

• And more!

Each day, you’ll get video instruction, quizzes, homework, and handouts
