GUIDE: SSH Basic Command


I have had people asking me about SSH commands, and the basic commands, to at least get them going.
The list below is not meant to be a complete SSH guide, but more so a list of some of the basic commands and what they do, as well as the proper formatting for the command.
I’ll start with what I think is the most basic, and work my way up.

Command: cd
Format: cd /directory/you/want/to/go/to
This command is the most basic, and widely used.  The cd command is used to move to the directory you specify.

Command: cp
Format: cp /directory/you/want/to/copy /directory/where/you/want/to/copy/to
The cp command will copy the file or folder you specify in the first portion, to the location you specify in the second portion.


Command: mkdir
Format: mkdir /directory/you/want/to/create
mkdir creates the directory or folder you specify

TIPS: Guide to Dual Booting

Guide to Dual Booting (PDF) tries to cover the basics: from a detailed Windows, Ubuntu or Fedora installation guide to various issues users may encounter like what happens if you install Windows after Ubuntu and how to get Ubuntu back by restoring GRUB or adding Linux to the Windows bootloader (using an utility that lets you tweak the Windows bootloader, called EasyBCD), which may seem easier for users coming from Windows.

And to make it complete, the guide also covers removing either Windows or Linux from the dual boot setup.
