Coming back over 10 years later to tell you, Eli - when I was new to linux as a teenager, I watched a TON of your videos, including this one. 2 years ago I finally began my career as a linux kernel engineer. Thank you so much for helping me start this journey so long ago!
I know so many people have already said this but you are such a gifted teacher!! I paid for a class at my college on linux and had NO IDEA wtf they were talking about when it came to mounting. I was so confused and it seemed so complicated. Now It seems so easy and simple thanks to your videos. Thank you, man. Like seriously... Thank you.
Few months ago I knew that there is Linux, but just that. Now I know for real that I want to became an Admin. This classes are very very solid ground. Thank you!!!
Eli is a good teacher. I am new to linux and he gave me just what I am looking for. He is very clear and easy to understand and he give really good examples. I know a lot more now then I did at first. Great teacher.
These Linux videos are so helpful Eli, your explanations are spot-on. Thanks to you I'm now gaining an understanding of this subject. We all appreciate the time and effort you put into these videos.
you are such an great teacher. thnx very much for your great work. right now i´m/you are teaching my daughter. she´s reading informatik at the tu berlin, first semester. starting with linux. so know your work is being introduced to the germa students. thanks eli!!!
Thank you Eli for posting these tutorials. You are the one of the best instructor on the Web. You are God send! Your detailed explanation helped me understand Linux and TCP/IP. God bless you for changing many people's lives. You surely did mine.Thank you.
How could you not like this video? This man clearly loves sharing information to help users and he is being very kind and patient as always. Ignore those haters Eli. ;)
I like your style. You're very thorough. You explain everything clearly and show not only how to do things but why. Only thing is I need a more accelerated lesson. Ill be back to go over the details. Yet I need to be able to navigate my machine asap if not sooner. I'm sandwiched between Microsoft and an OEM and my hardware is being held hostage. So this is a hostage rescue. Only as long as I cannot use my machine. It makes a very, very good hostage and I'll have to give. they win.
such contribution needs to be continued by others for humanitarian purposes just like Nicolas Telsa did and he is the greatest inventer of the milleniun
These videos are superb! I never thought I'd ever get a grounding in Linux as quickly as this, but Eli explains it all so well. Love the notes/cheat sheet too! Keep up the great work Eli, and thank you for providing such valuable tutorials.
Excellent video, employers are definitely looking for linux experience, videos like this are a great start to learn. Best way to learn linux I think is to use it, download a distro, boot it up in VMware Workstation and either run it from CD or install it. thanks.
I'm a little fed up of people commentating negative things. Yes he repeats a lot of things and yes these videos arent packed with everything in 20 minutes. Some people learn through repetition.
Hi Eli, Just wanna say thanks for doing all these videos. I'm doing my finals on basic linux commands in a few days and this really helped me a lot! Greetings from Belgium, Nick
I have been watching a lot of your instructions....YOU are awesome!! Love the fact that you're making it fun...and easy. You inspired me to be like you..............but less than bald head. lolz
eli please do a thorough tutorial in datastructures through c language.It is the most confusing thing in programming the way u explain makes things as simple as learning abc
oh men! u are brilliant I have seen some of your videos they are really great please men continue uploading videos may if you have video about Kali Linux please I like you!!
Eli - Thanks for the awesome video. Other videos I watched/info I read made the mounting of flash drives way to complex compared to what you showed us. Would it be possible for you to do a brief video on how to mount network drives? Thanks again for everything!
I'd like to get all the 17 dislikes people in one room....interview them...them create a channel for them. Talk bout character invertedness. How can someone not love Eli?
To put together what you've said, can you copy or move a file from a directory straight into the mounted flashdrive using the copy/move command, as long as you have the filepath typed correctly, or must you use a variation of the sudo mount /dev/sbd1 /mnt/flashdrive command, and that the move/copy commands are purely limited to within the server itself? Or, am I just making this all more complicated to myself than necessary?
Is it considered a best practice or just OCD to always place all the options before the arguments in command calls from shell? I would always write "rm -R dirname" from habit, not append or intermix the options.
Personally I ran into some issues trying to mount a new drive while using Ubuntu Server 16.04.02 as a VM within Workstation. After some research, I found I had to actually create the partition and also format it. To partition the new disk I used --- sudo fdisk /dev/sdb --- Press N to create a new partition. Press P to make it the primary partition. Press 1 to use all disk space (you may have to manually input sector start and end though, I had to). Press W to write the changes. Press Q to quit. I then had to format the partition using the following command --- sudo mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sdb1 --- You can look up different -t values as it changes what type of filesystem used. Hope this helps anyone that was having issues like me. (Trying to learn linux myself, Im not a pro)
Hi Eli, Excellent explanation. Also wondering about " sudo " command. Do you have any class regarding that. Because i am using it in one of my requirements and used to work fine, recently I am getting Permission Denied message. I am using as this sudo su - username --> it is giving me permission denied now It is working when i tried su - username. I am wondering it used to work and why it stopped working now. Could you please advise. Thanks, Cpen.
Hi Mr Eli: Thanks for your educational videos which I love to watch. I am not a computer professional as such sometimes I have difficulties in trouble shooting issues on my PC (Win 7). For the last one week or so I am not able to view all your videos on Full Screen or medium. The moment I click medium or Full Screen it just stops the video. Screen remains small. Can you please give me some tips to solve the issue. I am able to watch all other videos in Full Screen.
hello eli,thanks for the lessons.but what i dont understand exactly is when to use the / and when not to use it in the class with navigation in linux.Please help

you make this stuff crazy easy. you're an amazing teacher!
You are super pretty! 😉
wtf?

Eli you're awesome I would recommend all computer science students to watch all your videos.

Hello Eli:
In spite that English is not my mother language I perfectly understand your lectures and learned too much.
Great
Thank you vegy much.

I wish I was laid off during the pandemic I could have learned so much from eli. First saw you when you started years ago and faded from IT for a bit.
Eli you are great! You don't understand the knowledge you are showing how valuable it is . Thank you!
Hey Eli, i really appreciate your lessons.
The best linux tutorial i've seen so far! Thanks a lot!!!
Dang Eli, This was an outstanding class. I will listen to the rest of your video's.
such contribution needs to be continued by others for humanitarian purposes just like Nicolas Telsa did and he is the greatest inventer of the milleniun
Wow that made so much sense. I did speed up the video to 1.5 but that has been what I usually do when watching educational videos like in college.
I owe you for these all videos making my IT career easier. Love you so much
These videos are superb! I never thought I'd ever get a grounding in Linux as quickly as this, but Eli explains it all so well. Love the notes/cheat sheet too! Keep up the great work Eli, and thank you for providing such valuable tutorials.
I miss Eli just teaching and not rambling about random shit. His new interviews are kickass.
Excellent video, employers are definitely looking for linux experience, videos like this are a great start to learn. Best way to learn linux I think is to use it, download a distro, boot it up in VMware Workstation and either run it from CD or install it. thanks.
Five stars. You' re more than a teacher, amazing.
This is one of the most helpful videos on TH-cam, thank you :-)
You are a star sir, explained the complete thing so properly... Thank you so much :)

Like what your doing and I like all of the types of videos that you have.
Keep it up bro
+Eli the Computer Guy thanks for all your knowledge you helped me a great deal in my I.T. career.
Great videos Eli...thank you for doing them!
Is so clear so easy so fantastic Thank you for all the effort .
i turned off adblock and watched the ads, because damn, i feel like i should be paying tuition for this..
Exactly what i was looking for. Thanks a ton!
Thank you! This makes everything so clear.
Great tutorials. Please keep them coming.
This play list is really helpful.

Hello Eli the computer guy.U are awesome, thank you! Will you mind that if I post my classnotes online?

I really enjoy your videos, however a suggestion would be to adjust your mic volume between whiteboard and computer so I don't have to.
This series of vid is 6 years old. My new setup is light years beyond what I used back then
you are a gift from heaven
Eli you are a great guy
eli thanks for all this clips
