Lab 7

Linux is a common operating system that is used to run servers and some other applications. In this lab, you are required to install the Linux on your computer. A good way to try a new operating system is to install it in a virtual machine (VM). Hence, we are going to:

1. Install a virtualization software. (VirtualBox)

2. Next we'll create a VM and use it to install a Linux distribution. (Ubuntu)

3. Next we'll practice running a Linux shell and execute some different Linux commands. In particular, show the purpose of and demonstrate an example for each of the following commands: 

[ ls, cd, pwd, mkdir, rmdir, mv, cp, whoami, passwd, su, sudo.]
