Linux Filesystem

            So I was watching Good Doctor on Netflix, an there is this Line "All things are little as good an lot will kill you, Get into it an then Get Over it!". What I'm trying to say is even if it feels off to read or learn about Data Science as of now keep going, I can assure you it will be all fun once you start practicing it.

Today we will Discuss about "Partitioning And Formatting". As Lone does not necessarily mean lonliness same is partitioning does not mean creating barrier. Its just having your own space.

When you have By default windows OS installed an need to install Linux OS, That's when Partitioning and Formatting comes In view. Its Called as Dual Booting System or just Dual Boot.

We all are familiar with Hard-disk an Primary Partition it has, i,e. C-drive, D-drive, E-drive, F-drive an we Love to name them as per our conviction or comfort. Apart from changing name, do you know we can have partition within a partition? Answer is Yes. Its called as Extended Partition-  Logical Partition. 

You need not to bother about partition unless an until you are installing OS. In a simple way

: C-drive, D-drive, E-drive [ Extended Partition ], F- Drive

: C-drive, D-drive, E-drive, F- Drive [ Extended Partition ]

: C-drive, D-drive [ Extended Partition ], E-drive, F- Drive

Except C-drive you can create extended partition with any other drive for other OS or Dual Boot.

Extended Partitions may use OS-specific partition Table (Meta-data), Hence other OS may not be able to read it. [ Meta-Data: It is used to summarize basic information about data which can make tracking and working with specific data easier.]

Within Extended Partition you can have as many as Logical Partitions. Consider you have Hard-disk of 1TB or so an 250GB specifically assigned to E-drive. Now within E Drive i,e. our Extended Partition lets say for now we are creating Four Logical Partitions. Here, Know that Linux OS will be Installed on E-drive an what we are doing is assigning it Drive which we call as Logical Partition within extended Partition. We will discuss on how to Create Partition once we are on Installation Of Linux OS. Basically Partition is where you save your Files that you work on while using Linux OS.

HaHaHa!! You all didn't notice it yet, Title to Page says Linux file system but all I said is about Partitioning. 

So, After Creating Partition, the Partition is formatted with Filesystem. Like NTFS file system is used for Windows OS, FAT32 File System for Removable Drive, and Ext4 File System On Linux.

Linux File System Goes this way from Ext2, Ext3, an as of now we have Ext4 which is better version of all previous File System. 

Next Thing we will be Doing is Installation Of Linux. 

If you have any Concern or Correction you think is right to be mentioned, let me know in comment section.

Thank You!!

NTFS- New Technology File System....Developed By Microsoft

FAT32- File Allocation Table.

Linux Network Configuration And Troubleshooting Commands

  || Linux Network Configuration and Troubleshooting Commands ||          Computers are Connected In a Network to exchange Information or Resources with Each Other. Two Or More Computers connected through network media is Called as "Computer Network." Computers loaded with Linux Operating System can also be part of network whether it is Small or Large Network By it's Multitasking and Multiuser Natures. Maintenance of System an Network is task Of System Administrator. In this Article, we are going to study about Frequently Used Network configuration and Troubleshoot Commands In Linux. 1]  ifconfig (Interface Configurator )                    Command is used to Initialize an interface, assign IP Address to interface and enable or disable interface on Demand. With this Command you can View IP Address and Hardware/MAC Address assign to Interface and also  MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) size. To Enable or Disable Specific Interface: #ifup eth0 - To Enable #ifdown eth0 - To Di

Linux and Lone

 || Linuxx And Lone || #!/bin/bash #Most of you will hear is Linux is Unix-Like Operating System an that's fair but on other hand if  you are giving instructions to system it feels more like using Command Prompt. Basically its sweet and simple. Linux was developed by Mr. Linus Torvalds on 17 th Sep. 1991 as an open source Operating System as it was developed under GPL [ General Public License ].  As an Open Source you can modify as well developed it to your own comfort. But as DATA ANALYST all you need is basic of Linux OS. So what's the core part of OS.... Kernel. As Interesting it is Linux has its own Kernel. Kernel is a medium through which Hardware receives commands to be executed. For the beginner level we know there is platform for such commands to be given as well as executed. SHELL - Shell is a Platform which is used by user to provide instructions to hardware via Kernel. Over the Ages Shell Script has been developed which will be discussed in later part of blog. Linux

Linux Boot And Startup Process

  || Linux Boot And Startup Process || Hello Everyone, Hope the Installation was easy to Understand and Successful 😅. Now lets Move on to next part of Topic i,e. Linux Boot and Startup Process. In General we will be discussing about what goes in background when system is turned ON.  There are two sequence of events that are required to boot Linux Computer: Boot and Startup. The Boot sequence starts when the PC is turned ON, and is completed when the kernel is Initialized and  Systemd is Launched. Overall Process is Compromised of  following sections: 💫 BIOS POST 💫 Boot Loader [ GRUB2 ] 💫 Kernel Initialization 💫 Start Systemd  The Boot Process can be initiated in two ways : Power On an Restart/ Reboot. Lets Begin with BIOS POST: When power is turned ON, System runs the POST [ Power On Self Test ] which is part of the BIOS (Basic I/O System). BIOS was designed to initialize hardware components, an POST is part of BIOS whose task is to ensure that the computer hardware functioned Co
