Operating Systems Linux Fedora Which is the better platform to learn UNIX/Linux (Kali Linux Vs. Red Hat or other)? Post 302931088 by pasita on Saturday 10th of January 2015 08:44:38 AM
Old 01-10-2015
Ok, I feel it fine to be regarded as a noobie but as I've read the recommendations around I read the FreeBSD is the nearest to UNIX one can install.
Different Linux flavors are also good, why not but who really has tried them all?
I decided to install no WM at all, to use just the command line and no installed editors but ee(easy editor) which is a default editor on FreeBSD. Of course there are WMs to make it possible to use several command lines, which is practical, but You're the one to use it so it's You who make the decision.

..and about the multiboots.. my technical inability resulted me to install FreeBSD on a memory card to ensure after I accidentally ruin the system I can still use a Linux to pay my bills.

LEARN ABOUT FREEBSD

sade

SADE(8) 						    BSD System Manager's Manual 						   SADE(8)

NAME

     sade -- sysadmins disk editor

SYNOPSIS

     sade

DESCRIPTION

     The sade utility is used for various disk administration tasks on FreeBSD systems.

     It is generally invoked without arguments for the default behavior, where the main menu is presented.

NOTES

     The sade utility aims to provide a handy tool for disk management tasks on an already installed system.  The goal is to provide the same text
     interface for disk management in bsdinstall(8) in the post-installation environment.

SEE ALSO

     bsdinstall(8), gpart(8)

HISTORY

     A program called sade first appeared in FreeBSD 6.3 as a utility encapsulating features from the sysinstall(8) installer. It was replaced in
     FreeBSD 10.0 with the equivalent part of bsdinstall(8).

AUTHORS

     Nathan Whitehorn <nwhitehorn@FreeBSD.org>

BUGS

     The utility misses a lot of nice features, such as tools for manipulating gmirror(8).  These will be added later.
