How Linux Works, 2nd Edition.pdf (Size: 15.9 MB)

Description


Unlike some operating systems, Linux doesn't try to hide the important bits from you—it gives you full control of your computer. But to truly master Linux, you need to understand its internals, like how the system boots, how networking works, and what the kernel actually does.
In this completely revised second edition of the perennial best seller How Linux Works, author Brian Ward makes the concepts behind Linux internals accessible to anyone curious about the inner workings of the operating system. Inside, you'll find the kind of knowledge that normally comes from years of experience doing things the hard way.

Edition

Linux boasts the uber-powerful command line. Shell scripting is a main draw of adopting the Linux ecosystem. Linux Shell Scripting Cookbook dives into shell.

This excellent free eBook begins with the basics such as understanding Bash conceptually.

While most Linux ebooks are pretty technical, Free for All takes a different approach. Subtitled How Linux and the Free Software Movement Undercut the High-Tech Titans, Peter Wayner’s book probes the history of the open-source space. Wayner explores how Linux and open-source software rose to prominence, even rivaling paid software such as Microsoft outputs. Free for All reads almost like a novel, telling a complete narrative from start to finish.

This is a fantastic read for Linux buffs, but because it’s not as tech-heavy, there’s plenty of appeal to non-techies too. History buffs will likely appreciate Wayner’s riveting read. But don’t worry, Free for All is far from watered down. Rather, it’s replete with chapters discussing the likes of WINE, and even memoirs of software development. In a fun recollection, Wayners chronicles his foray into development with a program that turned secret messages into benign sentences. “The program enabled information to mutate into other forms, just like the shapeshifting monsters from The X-Files” he writes. With a good bit of humor, personal anecdotes, and detailed research, Free for All is one of the best books on the open-source community available. Bonus points for being free.

There is plenty of great material out there if you are trying to learn Linux, similar to these downloadable eBooks to teach yourself everything you ever wanted to know about Linux.
