Table of Contents
The world as we know it is now run and controlled by computers. Computers allow us to perform tasks quickly, easily and more efficiently than any time in history.
With a computer we can write books like this one, we can play games, keep track of important data such as bank records, personal photos or even play games that entertain us for hours on end.
When it comes to computers they are just connected pieces of hardware that work together to process information. At their core they do very little without the user interaction of humans.
When we look at a computer we see that we have a visual interface that allows us to perform specific tasks and functions. This visual interface can either be text based, where we type in commands in order to get a response or a visual interface or GUI that allows us to use a mouse or other device to visually interact with the computer.
This interface is known as the operating system and every computer needs one. The most popular operating system in the world is Microsoft Windows. Windows is a visual interface that allows us to do everything that I discussed here earlier plus a lot more.
However windows doesnt do everything and in fact isnt designed for specific jobs. There is however an operating system that will do everything as well as allow you, if youre a programmer to create your very own operating system. This software is called Linux.
Linux is a clone of another operating system known as Unix. Unix however is specifically designed to run on mainframes and university computers where Linux is more of a web hosting and development environment.
In this book we are going to explore Linux and its core features. We will talk about the different distributions of Linux, how to install it and what exactly you can do with it. At the end of this book you will have a good understanding of what Linux is and be on your way to playing and creating with this robust operating system.
Linux comes in a wide variety of different distributions. Each distribution builds off the core programming or kernel. Each distribution of Linux is built to do specific tasks and functionality. Deciding on which exact distribution of Linux to choose may take some time but the best part about it is that they are all FREE.
When we look at this operating system we are working with a FREE and open source piece of software. This means that anyone can take it, edit it, and even if they have the skills required create their own version of the operating system.
Before we get into the different version of Linux lets talk about what you need and how to get started. Each distribution of Linux can be installed the same way. The basic equipment that you will need is a computer and a USB stick with the Linux distribution of your choice.
The first thing that you will want to do is go to the web site for your selected distribution. For example if you want Ubuntu you can go to their site from this address.
http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop
The file you will download will be an ISO file. Save this file to your hard drive. The next step will be to download the universal USB installer. You can do this by visiting the following web site.
http://www.pendrivelinux.com
Once you have the ISO and the universal installer you want to make sure you have the USB stick plugged into the computer and reading. Next you want to double click on the universal installer to start it up. From there you will be presented with a visual interface of he installer.
In the dropdown menu you want to click on the distribution of Linux you downloaded. After completing this step you will be presented with the browse button. Click on the browse button and navigate through your computer to the location where you have downloaded the ISO Linux file. Click on the file and select OK.
When you complete this step you will now see that the file is active in the software. Next you want to select the location of the flash drive. In the little dropdown box select your flash drive letter. If no letter is showing make sure that it is plugged into your computer and functioning.
When your drive is selected you will see an option to format the drive. This is a good idea to select this box. Formatting the drive will remove any data from the drive making it clean and usable. This is an optional step but one I suggest that you use. If you have data on the USB stick you dont want to lose I strongly suggest backing it up or purchasing a separate USB drive specifically for this task.
Once completed click next. You will then be presented with a warning screen that will tell you that it will now install your Linux distribution. Click OK and Linux will be installed on the USB drive.
The second method is to download the software to a CD or DVD. The process is virtually the same as above but instead of using the USB program you just need to burn the ISO files to the CD or DVD.
To run your copy of Linux you will need to reboot your computer and boot to the USB or the CD. Then you will be able to install and run the software.
The third and most popular way to run Linux on your computer is through a virtual machine. A virtual machine is a piece of software that you run on your existing computer that creates a virtual copy of the operating system of your choice.
This is the most popular since it allows you to do everything a fresh install would do but protects your current computers operating system and file.
