Hey everyone, I’m relatively new to linux and was looking for some advice/direction. I have been using Mint Debian Edition for around 6mo or so, and want to learn to use the command line efficiently and proficiently.
I have set up EndeavourOS on a backup laptop I have and have been playing with it, reading the Arch Wiki and such, but I feel like I’m not necessarily learning why I’m doing things, just doing what has worked for others.
So here I am. I guess I’m looking for recommendations for books or articles (physical or online) that can help me to learn and understand the workings on linux, and especially the command line.
Thank you all so much.
I found it really easy, but I was pretty familiar with the terminal on Windows. I started off with Debian in December and set up LMDE for my wife a few weeks ago and it was dead simple, though I do have to be her tech support since she’s not really a computer person.
I thought it would be a pain to install drivers and Steam and all that, but it wasn’t. I did give up on trying to set up my printer, but I’ll revisit that eventually.
LMDE isn’t Debian. It’s based on it, but removes a lot of the headaches, found in Debian.
Yeah, I know that, that’s why I picked it for her.
it’s a good pick
