  • Use a hypervisor of your choice to install Linux. Many hypervisors are available, such as Oracle’s VirtualBox, which is a free download. In addition, as part of UMGC’s agreement with VMware, you can download VMware Workstation for free. See below for specific screenshot requirements. You should include at least 3 screenshots (e.g., disk partitioning, timezone selection, creating the default account). Each screenshot should be accompanied by a brief explanation of what you did.
    NOTE: It is not necessary to include screenshots of installing the hypervisor software.

(1.2.3: Explain specialized terms or concepts to facilitate audience comprehension.)

  • Demonstrate command-line operations that will provide the following information:
    • A listing of files in a directory and common file attributes
    • The current directory (hint: also known as the present working directory)
    • Create a file, then copy it to a different directory
    • Create a second file and move it to a different directory
    • Remove the first file, as well as the copy you created
    • The manual page for a given command
    • Create a text file, then use an editor to modify the content. Then display the content of the modified file
