Description
Linux for the Superuser: A Comprehensive Guide to the Linux Operating System Understand the inner workings of Linux and take control of your computer. Unlike other operating systems, Linux provides full access to its internals, giving you the freedom to customize and optimize your system. This third edition of How Linux Works has been thoroughly updated and expanded to cover key topics such as Logical Volume Manager, virtualization, and containers. You'll learn how Linux boots, manages devices, and handles networking, as well as how to write effective shell scripts and explore the kernel. With a combination of background, theory, and real-world examples, this book will teach you what you need to know to master Linux. New to this edition are hands-on coverage of the LVM, journald logging system, and IPv6, as well as an expanded discussion of systemd-based installations.
