Conclusion
Thank you for making it through to the end of Linux For Beginners , let’s
hope it was informative and able to provide you with all of the tools you
need to achieve your goals whatever they may be.
In Linux, unlike other operating systems, by default, the work with Linux is
not done in a graphical way, but by entering commands manually. Linux has
several programs that are responsible for interpreting the commands entered
by the user and perform the appropriate actions in response. These
programs called shell are the typical mode of communication on all UNIX
systems including Linux. For many people having to enter the commands
manually may seem intimidating and difficult, although as you must have
seen in the book Linux commands are relatively simple and very powerful.
Linux is also a multitasking and multi-user operating system and it is
capable of running several programs (or tasks) simultaneously and host
several users simultaneously. Therefore, all users of Linux must have a user
account on the system that establishes its privileges. Linux organizes users
into groups so that privileges can be established for a particular workgroup,
for access to certain files or system services.
Finally, there is another fundamental concept when installing and using
Linux, which is a Super User or User root. This user is the system
administrator and is created during installation. As an administrator, you
can access and modify (as well as destroy) all system information, so try to
avoid working as a root user as much as possible. We hope you learned all
of this and a lot more is seen from this book.
Finally, if you found this book useful in any way, a review on Amazon is
always appreciated!

Introduction
In this book, we shall learn how an operating system called Linux works
and how hackers can use this tool to help them hack. Linux is an operating
system (OS) created by Linus Torvalds early in the 1990s and is a popular
choice to work with today. The main part behind this to ensure that it works
is the Linux Kernel which is available for free. Unlike Microsoft Windows
which is easier to use, Linux may seem a bit more difficult to work with.
But this is mostly because we have to actually do some coding and use the
command line, rather than the graphical interfaces, to make things work and
to bring up the programs we want.
An operating system helps you go about tasks on a computer like writing,
browsing the internet or doing many other activities. If the installation of
the operating system is not on your desktop, then you will be unable to use
your computer. Even for you to be able to read this content you need an
operating system. The kernel is the heartbeat of the Linux system, and they
can be of different types such as Ubuntu, Fedora, and Debian.
Here, you will get to understand the different types of Linux distributions,
how each of the distribution work and which one can best suit your
preferences. The skills needed for you to start the hacking techniques to
enable a smooth hacking process. With the detailed review of what you
need, then getting started will become easy for you.
