I'm only 20 minutes in and you are making it easy for me (75 yo) to understand most of what you are saying. Microsoft is killing my pc that may grandson built for me back in 2015 with os 7 which I upgraded to os 10 for free. But now it takes my system over 15 minutes to startup and it has a lot of os 11 being downloaded. All I use the computer (tower type) for is reading (52 inch monitor as I have bad eye sight) and surfing (T Mobile hub connection). I don't need the office stuff. Thanks for making it easy to comprehend as I'll be watching this for a while.
It would be unfair to my conscience and humankind if I watched this video without leaving a review. I have watched a couple of Linux videos on TH-cam, and I can tell you, that your teaching pattern is 10/10. you broke it down to the level that any layman could comprehend. Thank you so much!
For those who are wondering, this is a very introductory course, do not expect to find here commands and concepts beyond the basics for a relatively standard use of the operating system.
I normally don't leave comments but this one deserves some kudos. I love how you took your time. I appreciate the patience. I will be following you to do more.
great video! if anyone was wondering how he finishes some lines so quick; he's just hitting the TAB key after typing some of the beginning of a file, its a nifty terminal trick.
The timing could not be more perfect. I’m 3 weeks into my final semester of my Computer Science degree and one of the modules focus on the Linux OS. Thank you for the upload!
Perfect timing. I am 3 weeks into my data engineering course and coming from a non tech background...you have just made my learning easier less than 20 mins into the video. Thanks a bunch!!

Dude, this made many things crystal clear for me. I spent a lot of time looking for a decent beginner Linux course, and yours is by far the best I've found! Thanks for making this!
This was great, very easy to follow and understand. It really helps that you are taking your time explaining everything simply rather than sounding like youre reading from a textbook. Definitly will follow 100%
Damn, this is my 2nd week in trying to learn this and you have broken it down in such a simplistic manner. Much appreciated and you're teaching is so chill. Good job!
YOU are an amazing teacher! My first time ever looking at Linux. I was a Cobol programmer back in the 80's. Your presentation is so smooth. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much. Linux was love at first sight! I almost got stuck in the last part of the installation (29:41) where the following message popped up: 'Please remove the installation medium, then press ENTER:' In the end I went to Devices > Optical Drives, then selected 'ubuntu-23.04-desktop-amd64.iso' and clicked 'Remove disk from virtual drive' (don't worry, the virtual machine won't suddenly explode or delete everything on your computer). It worked.
2:07:55 To show "ps" list of processes, it is more useful to use "ps -eaf" rather than "ps -A" to show memory use, CPU time, how long ago started, user-ID, and more. This usually outputs several pages of text, so you may also want to pipe it through grep, less, awk, or sort+head, to focus on the processes you want. The "pstree" command will show which procs are related to each other, as parent & child, in a branch/indented tree. For a quick screen of the heaviest process load on your machine... use command "top" which shows top CPU use, updated every 10 seconds. (press "q" to quit)
You are a great teacher, the speed of your speaking and clear pronunciation if very clear, i understand what you say, thank you .. i needed this to start using Linux… Bravo and thank you 🌹🙏
Layman here, my experience is copying code from internet in hope it would work and some DOS (which I find quite similar), like 27y ago back in college. Thanks for your tempo, I could actually follow along on my RPi terminal. I was more proficient in typing in the end Thank you for your time
What a great tutorial! It's simple and makes perfect sense. Easy to follow. I am supposed to be doing research next semester with my professor, and I need to know how to do basic linux commands. Thanks to this video, I will not be in the dark. Awesome!
as a linux user for more than 3 years, i can confirm that this course is super helpful for newbies who want to learn the usage of linux. thanks fcc for this amazing course...
I'm only an hour in, but this is fantastic. It's exactly what I've been looking for. Online articles are so confusing. You explain it so well; for example, saying to use the arrow keys to go up and down the manuals. Thank you!
I am a beginner in Linux and this course was truly amazing and helped me get grasp of Ubuntu OS. Thank you for sharing it. I'd recommend people play the video at a speed of 1.25.
Thoroughly enjoyed the free class on Linux. I came across your TH-cam video while looking for information on using Bash shell for my CySA class. Again thank you and your teaching style is most appreciative and made sense to me. I am retired from the entertainment industry and hope to get something in the CySA field to keep me busy.
@@thecodfather7109 one thing about linux lesson class is so hard to find teacher that teaching about problem solving while a device with linux got broken, such as microphone not working or even speakers not working. That's made me frustrated about linux
For those who does not want to install a virtual machine nor install Linux directly on your machine, there is a way to install linux terminal in windows through wsl, is very simple and fast, take a search if you got interested.
I have tried some commands/installation in Linux but was never confident becauz i don not the basics of the Linux OS. your session is super useful to get started and understand the basics. Thanks a lot, appreciate it. Eagerly waiting for your next session which covers advanced stuff.
Thank you for teaching me more in three hours than I learned in a 14 week semester. I was dreading coming back to study Linux because of how horrible my professor was. You made it so easy.
wish we had intermeddiate mini courses too. I know my basics like a desktop environment and the terminal and different distributions but I wanna get to the advanced stuff. But this course is pretty great. Nails the basics and helps set people up for using linux all the time.
This is the best Linux introductory post I have seen. I dabbled with Linux many years ago but droped it. Now I am thinking about getting another laptop and installing Linux. Why??? Well I am sick and tired of Microsoft. Yeah, Windows works but I don't some stuff about Windows. I think Ubuntu is exactly what I want. And I will enjoy the learning process. Thank you for posting.
@KeepItTechie Thanks for the effort in producing this 2 hour plus video. I finished every second of it. As a beginner in Linux, i am now more confident of using ubuntu with the terminal mode.
Sir, Thank you so much for this video. I am currently in college for CIS-1107 - Intro to operating systems. It's a section of my Cyber Investigations degree. I didn't know squat about using the terminal except maybe dos commands like "ping." This video really helped me understand the chapter I am about to read. Thanks again. Your efforts do not go unnoticed.
I love the way you speaks. It sounds so clearly for me, and I'm not even fluent in english (nor advanced). So thank you a lot for this course I hope to see you again in a future course.
I know this is the least important aspect of your generosity, but it's nice to see black people doing educational things like this in the IT field. I just landed my first job as a software developer so it's very exciting to take in all of this knowledge and be able to apply it in a professional setting. Thank you for this!
Thank you Josh, I am a College Student, age 48... You have been a Great Help to Me in my education, I Will watch this Video A few more times. Thanks man!!!
Excellent introductory course, thank you. It's quite a brain strain to go from GUI to command line but worth it in the end. Two very minor comments, neither of them reduced the huge value of the course, I'm only mentioning them in case they help. At about 1h20 you used 'cd ..' but hadn't mentioned '..' before. Also in the section on 'apt' a quick description of what a linux 'package' is might help. Thanks again for a really helpful video.
My first time ever commenting on a TH-cam video. Hands down the best I have seen. Makes it easy for me especially since I'm switching from the medical field , things like these used to look like the Matrix movie to me. Thanks a lot

I'm still watching just 20 minutes in here, nice work. Even though I've been using Linux for many years, I'd still consider myself a novice... One thing I can reccomend for trying Linux and to save your butt, make a 32 bit live USB. You can boot off of it to try without installing. I've saved myself and other quite a few times with this nifty tool. By using 32 bit version you can ensure it will be the most compatible with any machine you may need to rescue.
This was an outstanding presentation, I've learned a lot, can't wait to absorb the next course from you. Some just know how to teach and some just confuse you my friend are the 1st.
thank you...I learned things in like 30 seconds..I have some versions of Linux,some books,and it just seemed like a whole lot of chaos..I will sit and watch the whole thing later..
Good that he talked a bit about Stallman. But he should have explained what free software actually means. Free has multiple meanings in english and in this case, it is about rights. It's not free as in free beer. Thus, sometimes free software is called libre software. Stallman recommends to watch his TED talk in which he explained the importance of free software. So yeah. Btw. if you are a new user you might want to join a community (forum, reddit, chat platform). By regularly checking a community, you will see what other people share and thus you might learn new things every few days. I for instance am active in the Linux Gaming community on Matrix and Discord (tho discord is not a good platfom and unfree software..).
Stick with Mint. Save yourself the frustration of Ubuntu (or Gnome 3 to be exact). Mint/Cinnamon is far better than Ubuntu/Gnome. In the recent decade or so, Gnome has the habit of looking for any program that works just find, discarding it, and then they proceed to build an inferior version of it, with about 5% of its original functionality! Just compare Gnome Files to the original old Nautilus (Or Nemo in Mint). Tl;dr: Stick with Mint/Cinnamon, Gnome is trash.
@@Osama_Abbas Though I've used other distros like Arch, Gentoo, and Ubuntu. I'm currently using an old laptop for Mint Xfce so my priority is performance over customization. Currently running Windows 11 as my daily driver on another pc, and planning to dual-boot it with Gentoo using DWM or any related wm's to said PC. Only using Mint for programming and also learning Linux.
In Window 11, with VirtualBox 7.0, repeated 3 times still not success in installing Ubuntu. Finally it success by changing the hard drive size from 10.00 GB to 25.00 GB and also using the ISO of Ubuntu22.10 instead of Ubuntu22.04. I do not know what make the difference. but I am in the Linux desktop now! It is also able to perform a software update, Keep on exploring what can be done within Ubuntu. Thanks a lot for your tutorial!
Hi, Learners! You might find these videos helpful to setup your Linux Environment using VirtualBox. As a MACOSX user I was stuck in some problems.

This was an outstanding presentation, I've learned a lot, can't wait to absorb the next course from you. Some just know how to teach and some just confuse you my friend are the 1st.
thank you...I learned things in like 30 seconds..I have some versions of Linux,some books,and it just seemed like a whole lot of chaos..I will sit and watch the whole thing later..
Good that he talked a bit about Stallman. But he should have explained what free software actually means.
Free has multiple meanings in english and in this case, it is about rights. It's not free as in free beer. Thus, sometimes free software is called libre software.
Stallman recommends to watch his TED talk in which he explained the importance of free software.
So yeah. Btw. if you are a new user you might want to join a community (forum, reddit, chat platform). By regularly checking a community, you will see what other people share and thus you might learn new things every few days. I for instance am active in the Linux Gaming community on Matrix and Discord (tho discord is not a good platfom and unfree software..).
there is also a Level1linux Channel and Level1techs Forum's. it is really great place to hang out and nerd out.
Fantasic video dude Much thanks. 2 years in for me but i have to go back and rewatch basics now and then. youre good at this
Perfect timing! Currently using Mint for programming right now. This video suprised me! Gonna watch it later. Thanks Free Code Camp!
Me too! What a coincidence
@@anynomoussucker823 Is it your first time using Linux?
Stick with Mint. Save yourself the frustration of Ubuntu (or Gnome 3 to be exact). Mint/Cinnamon is far better than Ubuntu/Gnome.
In the recent decade or so, Gnome has the habit of looking for any program that works just find, discarding it, and then they proceed to build an inferior version of it, with about 5% of its original functionality!
Just compare Gnome Files to the original old Nautilus (Or Nemo in Mint).
Tl;dr: Stick with Mint/Cinnamon, Gnome is trash.
@@Osama_Abbas Though I've used other distros like Arch, Gentoo, and Ubuntu. I'm currently using an old laptop for Mint Xfce so my priority is performance over customization. Currently running Windows 11 as my daily driver on another pc, and planning to dual-boot it with Gentoo using DWM or any related wm's to said PC. Only using Mint for programming and also learning Linux.

Time to compile the kernel ?
THE BEST Instructor of all time Period.
This video was awesome! Thank you for doing this! It was extremely helpful. You're a great instructor!
In Window 11, with VirtualBox 7.0, repeated 3 times still not success in installing Ubuntu. Finally it success by changing the hard drive size from 10.00 GB to 25.00 GB and also using the ISO of Ubuntu22.10 instead of Ubuntu22.04. I do not know what make the difference. but I am in the Linux desktop now! It is also able to perform a software update, Keep on exploring what can be done within Ubuntu. Thanks a lot for your tutorial!
Hi, Learners!
You might find these videos helpful to setup your Linux Environment using VirtualBox.
As a MACOSX user I was stuck in some problems. After watching so many videos with spending lots of time , I finally come to the actual solution.
Problems :
1. Kernel Driver Not Installed (rc=-1908) Error on Mac

2. Can't resize my LINUX OS window rather it was changing the VirtualBox window.

Actually watched it from start to finish w/a second monitor running UBUNTU.. Awesome course and great method of making it very user-friendly! Learned alot and a great jumping board to more knowledge......thanku
Thanks for Linux course it came at a perfect time as my algo course instructor is encouraging to do programming in Linux.
I completely agree with the previous comments. Thank you very much. I learned a lot from this video, as a beginner.😊
Awesome course and video bro....have lots of experience with Linux but learned a few things!
This is the simplest explanation video for a total beginner. Love it.❣
Do you have or recommend a Linux course for a level just above this one? I’d like to keep learning about terminal. Thank you for the amazing content btw!
Great stuff Sir. Your material has a lot of substance for foundation learners.
what do we call -r or -i or -lt please help
@@Iloveanimalssmh "Switches". Please keep in mind that those switches have different uses when used with different commands. If you want to find out what they are used for type 'man' followed by the command. Hope I was able to help.
@@Iloveanimalssmh idk… ask the triad what they think and let’s figure this out together!!! Blouds❤ & Cryptos unique in size and shape are not a problem for 😊!!!
this it literally all you need to do to grasp most day to day linux admin tasks. thanks alot
Wow! Simply incredible teaching..... Thanks!
I must commend you for a well presented Linux course. The delivery was excellent. Thank you for putting all into it.
Appreciate the time and effort you put into this ! Have a good one

Thank you sir. I just graduated from SJSU with bachelor in industrial design and manufacturing/electrical engineering design and most companies are asking me to have 1-3 years Linux experience.
This was awesome. You are a great teacher for beginners. Looking forward to more of your content Josh
Probably the best and most patient explanation of Linux of beginners out there. I've subscribed to your channel. Thanks
