  • Introduction to Linux
    Presentation to U3A - Linux Introduction 8 June 2019 – Terry Schuster - [email protected] What is Linux? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux https://www.iotforall.com/linux-operating-system-iot-devices/ In simple terms, Linux is an operating system which was developed to be a home-built version of UNIX, one of the first operating systems which could be run on different brands of mainframe computers with quite different types of hardware. Linux has developed to the extent that it is the leading operating system on servers and other big iron systems such as mainframe computers, and the only OS used on TOP500 supercomputers (since November 2017, having gradually eliminated all competitors). It is used by around 2.3 percent of desktop computers. The Chromebook, which runs the Linux kernel-based Chrome OS, dominates the US K–12 education market. In the mid 2000’s, Linux was quickly seen as a good building block for smartphones, as it provided an out- of-the-box modern, full-featured Operating System with very good device driver support, and that was considered both scalable for the new generation of devices and had the added benefit of being royalty free. It is now becoming very common in IoT devices, such as smart watches/refrigerators, home controllers, etc. etc. BTW, Tux is a penguin character and the official brand character of the Linux kernel. Originally created as an entry to a Linux logo competition, Tux is the most commonly used icon for Linux, although different Linux distributions depict Tux in various styles. The character is used in many other Linux programs and as a general symbol of Linux.

  • Cucumber Linux Distribution Scott Court February 16, 2018 Who Am I?
    An Overview of How I Created the Cucumber Linux Distribution Scott Court February 16, 2018 Who am I? What is Cucumber Linux? ● A Linux distribution built entirely from source, from scratch ● An independent distribution: it’s not based on any other Linux distribution. ● Inspired by: a mixture of Slackware and Linux from Scratch. ● Architectures: i686 and x86_64 ● Package manager: pkgtools (borrowed from Slackware; uses tar archives as packages like Pacman). ● License: MIT ● Mission: provide a Linux distribution that follows the Unix Philosophy with a focus on simplicity, stability and security, and is usable as an every day, general purpose operating system. What can it Do? ● It’s functional as both a server and desktop operating system. ● Server Operating System: – Contains a fully functional LAMP stack as well as SSH, mail, DNS, FTP and Rsync servers. – Runs the web server and mail server for cucumberlinux.com. – Runs the primary mirror for Cucumber Linux (http and rsync). ● Desktop Operating System: – Comes with the XFCE desktop environment, a web browser, a mail client and an office suite. – It’s running this presentation right now. May 2016 – How it Began ● I had just completed my freshman year of college. ● I was looking for a project to work on that Summer. ● I had grown unhappy with the direction most every other Linux distribution was going in (namely the exodus from Sysvinit to Systemd). ● I had always had an interest in operating system development. ● So I set out to make my own Linux distribution, without Systemd. May 2016 – July 2016 ● May, June and July of 2016 were spent doing research and trying out different techniques for building a Linux system from scratch.
