Linux Commands

There are “live” versions of Linux and installation versions of Linux – and some versions are both! For example, there’s a version of Linux named Knoppix and it’s only available as a “live” version (on CD or DVD). As another example, there’s a Linux distribution named Ubuntu Linux and it boots from CD / DVD and runs as a “live” CD / DVD version, and you can also install Ubuntu from the Live version CD /DVD! So, from just one Ubuntu Linux CD or DVD, you can run the “live” version of Ubuntu Linux or you can do the steps install Ubuntu onto your hard disk. When you boot with Ubuntu Linux, it starts up and begins running as a “live” version of Linux. At this point, you can either just continue to use Ubuntu as a “live” version, or you can install Ubuntu onto your system from the “live” version CD / DVD. Therefore, from just one Ubuntu Linux CD (or DVD), you can run the “live” version of Ubuntu or you can install Ubuntu onto your hard disk. If you decide to install Ubuntu, you run the installation routine from CD / DVD and install it on your hard disk. This copies the Linux files onto your hard disk and so you won’t need to boot with the Ubuntu CD / DVD any more. You just boot from your hard disk to start Ubunut Linux. A Linux Live CD / DVD is used to boot and run Linux temporarily, for as long as the power’s turned on, and you may be able to save your data or you may not – once the power goes off, you need to boot from the CD / DVD again.
