There are many varying distributions of Linux available for personal and enterprise use and embedded in a large variety of devices. Linux technicians must have the ability to install Linux and navigate and search Linux file systems. In this course, you will explore Linux components and distributions, and how those distributions can address specific business needs. Then you will discover how Linux interacts with the basic input/output system (BIOS) and Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI). Next, you will examine the various ways to boot and install Linux, learn how to install a Linux server and desktop from an ISO image, and deploy a cloud-based Linux virtual machine. Finally, you will use Linux commands to manage hardware and navigate and search Linux file systems. This course can be used to prepare for the Linux+ XK0-005 certification exam.
