Introduction to Linux¶
To use the CÉCI cluster you must know some basics about Linux. Among others, you will need to know how to
- List files and directories.
- Move inside directories.
- Create, copy or rename (move) files and directories.
- Use a text editor.
The learning of Linux is outside the scope of this documentation. There are plenty of Linux tutorials available on the web and writing our own would bring no added value.
Here is a list of tutorials selected by CÉCI sysadmins
- UNIX Tutorial for Beginners
- Linux command line beginner guide video playlist
- Beginner’s Guide to the Bash Terminal video
