What are the fun ways to learn and master the file management system in Linux ?

  Are you referring to how to manipulate files, or more what the various files and folders do?

    Had no idea that it was such a huge topic :))

    Let’s start off with something very simple : how to track a particular file existing in your system ?

    source

    • urushitan@kakera.kintsugi.moe ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      find / -iname "filename" 2>/dev/null
      

      Find a file by (case insensitive) file name. Search the whole filesystem (/). Pipe errors to /dev/null (since it will output permission denied errors trying access directories you don’t have access to, among other things)

  Install Arch

    Why not MX ?

    source

    • Novocirab@feddit.org ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Haven’t tried MX. The point with installing Arch (even if you just do it half-way) is that you get to tinker with fdisk, fstab, chroot and other disk-related things for setting up your basic system, and the instructions for that are really good.

    What sort of a game is that ?

    • A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Hacking simulator. Gives you a fake Unix-style computer with a terminal and window environment, you try to hack other computers and access a specific file etc

  Bunch of sites out there like: www.learncmd.io

  You can combine practicing navigating the filesystem along with a game like rpg-cli !

  You can think of it as basically "programs", "more programs", "stuff", "gubbins", "misc" and "other".
