Thank you! And yes, that's my plan. Finished this course (Linux Essentials) and currently working on Linux+ -- I hope you stick around, it's a long course, but I think it will be worth it!
Thank you! And... I don't remember, lol. If they disappeared, I probably just removed them in the VirtualBox settings. Sorry to make the video confusing!
Been enjoying the series. taking the exam next week. Question: for this specific video... the CMD ls nvm* and ls sd*, what if you don't know what kind of drives are installed. what CMD would you use to see all the drives. Is there a device manager equivalent in linux?
I passed, no issues. I recommend knowing the differences between the flavors of Linux. This helped me eliminate choices that just didn't apply to a question. While the test didn't make me an expert in the least, it did score me a ton of attaboys at the office. It also made Linux way less scary to use @@brighteyesldy
I really like your videos just one thing, just to clear it out for others who might get it wrong, when you pointed to the video card you said it same as GPU, I mean kinda it is, but GPU stands for graphics processing unit that is the main chip on the PCB, its like CPU just on PCB not on the motherboard. And there is also memory and lot more components and that all is video card.
That's fair critique, thank you. Sometimes it's tough to decide how much depth to go into without sounding pedantic. The unfortunate side effect is that I sometimes add confusion on accident.
Nobody I know in the professional cares about the strict semantics between "GPU" and "video card" If you call a video card a GPU, unless you're in the specific business of building/repairing video cards, most people will know what you mean.
hehehee -- yeah, trying to display binary files on the terminal can get messy. Shouldn't have *broken* anything, but an unexpected need to restart can be annoying. :D
"0retty dusty", proceeds to show one of the cleaner insides of a used computer I've seen.

You know the PC is old when it has a dvd player 🤣
Floppy disk drive would like to have a word… 🤣
So I just forgot my password on the windows linux bash and had to reset it using the cmd. That was pretty cool.
this video is great and I'm really enjoying this series, but I'm easily distracted, and I must know what happened to /dev/sda3 and /dev/sda4 😕

@@shawnp0wers You're good! It didn't make anything less understandable just curiosity on my part.

Using "lsblk" should show you all the the block devices on the system. :)
@mwinchesterjr6862 How did the exam go?

Great video thanks from wgu
Word of advice for the fellow noobs such as myself... Don't "cat" any of the drivers in the dev folder. It crashed my entire computer lol

Thank you! That's my plan, to build up a useful catalog of training for anyone wanting to learn. :)
I thought we were identifying how to tell if hardware went bad
