a developer I was working with one day was using it a year or two ago and I looked up and asked "...what's that syntax you're using?" and they explained; the nooks within crannies and crannies within nooks...
I learn something new every day about the bash shell. Try this one in your terminal: echo $? It will show the exit status of your last command run in the shell. Exit status 0 means the command ran without errors. Anything other than a 0 indicates an error. Try doing: ping -c 1 foo.bar.coolness (or whatever fake net domain name you want to use). You should get an error. Then run the echo $? command and see what status you get. The shell is so fun and powerful.
Wow!! What a great explanation. I couldn't know what INode is from recent videos, but after I watched your video which is from 11 years ago, I totally understand it. Thank you!!
The last part of this video allowed me to get rid of a file named -O (messed up a wget command around 2016) that I had had for years and had given up on dealing with
very clear explanation. i havent' been even halfway the video, but i already liked this video because the explanation is such easy to grasp. Although i find it a little bit distracting when looking at that writing hand. :)
took a midterm test today and one of the questions was "what is an inode", got it right! apparently, but thought I should take a look and boom, here I am!. watched a few of your videos so far and subscribed. keep up the good work!
Thanks for this. One question I have though, in your delete example of the "ab* file at the end, you deleted it using the inode number. If you had more than one file linked to that then I assume it would delete every linked file associated with that inode?
If you delete a file, then it depends on what kind of link it is. If it is a soft link, then no, but any access to that soft link results in “File not found”. Whereas if it’s a hard link, then that will still be able to open up the contents as the inode doesn’t get deleted. But if you delete an inode, then the hard link should get deleted, and the soft link remains as a dangling link, until you create another file with the same name, in which case, the soft link links to that file again.
Orkish I guess the main reason is that it makes the video more engaging, resembling a university lecture or a higher budget video with animations. This can engage more of your brain since most people like to see stuff moving, I think we're more evolved to absorb information like this than talking over still images. Other benefits are that information is more gradually displayed to you, giving you time to process what each part represents. I personally like it, more interesting than the other OS lectures out there from uni profs who talk over still PowerPoints.
but if I _vim 131135_ the bloody editor starts a whole new file, although I just wanted to edit bloody inode. What th f.... happened here? I wanna inspect the inode itself with surgical precision!
10 years ago ... but right now I enjoy watching it . this is called a greate content
Thank you
i was more amazed on the use of "!"
yeah that's bash history expansion

Lol me too. I paused the video and went on a rabbit hole about shell events.
same here ... i new abt Ctrl + r then type last command

used this to cram for an operating systems quiz at the last second, it's fantastic!

Thank you!!
I think I will update this soon, but thank you :)
Excellent tutorial and clear explanation! Thank you! I didn’t know you could search for files by inode number 👍
Thanks for your comment
Best explanation I've seen of a pretty complex topic. Thanks!
I'm a Linux newbie and found it easy to understand. Thanks!
Thank you :)
Great video, crystal clear explanation. Do more videos sir
This video is amazing! We were looking for something like this to keep configuration management.
The last part of this video allowed me to get rid of a file named -O (messed up a wget command around 2016) that I had had for years and had given up on dealing with
Awsome
Thanks. First clear explanation on inode for me today
A very well done video! Thanks a million for this. :)
very nice introduction to a firmly misunderstood / unknown topic
very clear explanation.
i havent' been even halfway the video, but i already liked this video because the explanation is such easy to grasp.

Thanks! That's a great lecture :)
Thank you

Man that was strait to the point ! Tums up
very good explanation with examples. Thanks for sharing
Love it when you say changed
:)
Excellent video. Thank you.
using the iNode number to alleviate the absurd file names is a very good method.
This was a great lesson. I plan on checking out your website and hopefully subscribing soon.

Is there any reason why rm 'ab' doesn't remove the inode ?
Great! Thank you.

What is the point of having an automated hand slowly "writing out" text?

The inode is the metadata. It uses not a file. Editing the metadata is supported with tools such as chmod , chown and touch.
