Linux Commands

There, now just go into file manager and click on the
directory you created and you will have all the files that
are on your windows partition. When you're done, don't
forget to unmount the drive by typing:
umount /dev/xxxx /yyyyyyy
Each time you want to access your windows files, just
mount the partition (unless they're set for automount.
Edit /etc/fstab, find the line that represents your
Windows partition and look for a place with says noauto.
If you find the word noauto, change it into defaults. If
you don't, your Windows partition will probably get
automounted whenever you boot-up Linux). When
you're done with them, just unmount the partition.
5.5 - linuxconf
There are lots of commands in Linux for configuring
everything to user passwords, networks, and the message
that comes up when you start Linux. With so many
things to configure, luckily there is one program that
does it all. Just type 'linuxconf' at the command prompt,
and you'll be brought to the Linux Configuration
program.
5.6 - Mounting
5.61 - Mounting Drives
In Linux, drives not only have to be physically mounted
to the computer, but mounted in software too. In the
KDE and GNOME GUIs, you can easily mount a CDROM or disk drive by clicking on the 'CD-ROM' or
'Disk Drive' icons on the desktop.
5.7 - Runlevels
While Windows is booting, have you ever pressed the F8
key? Well, if you have, you're probably familiar with a
screen that pops up giving you a list of ways you can
load Windows. There's safe mode, command prompt,
step-by-step confirmation, etc. Linux has something just
like that, and they're called 'runlevels'. There are six
runlevels in all, and some are pretty much the same. A
runlevel is a list of commands to load-up as soon as you
start up Linux (there's a mini-tutorial about runlevels at
blacksun.box.sk/byteme.html). Your default runlevel is
probably 5. If you configured the GUI to start up when
you boot the system, and if your default runlevel is 5,
then that is the runlevel configured to boot the GUI when
it
starts up...simple, right?
