• /root, and /home/<username> directories
• Which command display disk information? :
• Which command display Linux kernel version information? :
• Which command display Linux OS and version information :
• Which Linux directory hold disk drives information? :
• How to access Linux remotely :
• How can we remove directory which has sub-directories or files? :
• How can we see network interface name information? :
Week 04:
• PRACTICE :
• Task 01:
• Create D1 directory, Under this directory create two more
directories as (D2, and D3). Return to D1 directory here you create
two more directories (D4, & D5) inside D3 directory, but the
command should be executed from D1 directory. After this, you
create two more directories (D6 & D7) under D2 directory
• Please note we will create all sub-directories from D1 directory
• Task 02:
• Please write the command to show directories in Hierarchical
View
• Task 03:
• Under D1 directory run command to remove D3 directory
• Hints: mkdir, cd, pwd, rmdir, ls, yum, tree
• >>> Command Structure
• Command [option] [argument]
• # ls –l <dir | file>
•
• >>> File management
Week 04 : • touch, cat, nano, vim
