Hi guys, first post on this discussion forum ever. Nice to meet you all. Hope this belongs here. I have just returned to college for IT after a lapse in enrollment. We're going to be working with Linux more in the future, and even the Powershell in Windows too. I have been messing around with the Raspberry Pi I got for one of my classes, but I pretty much have to Google every command I use in the terminal for it since I'm not that familiar with Debian (sorry, Raspbian), the Powershell, or Linux terminals at all. My question is this: what are some essential, need to know commands for moving around in and using the Powershell? You can give me one or several, list form, add a short description of what it does, whatever. I'll be jotting them all down in my notes with some extra fluff anyways for future reference. Appreciate it guys, thanks. TL;DR: Need useful, necessary Powershell / Linux terminal commands.

It is not possible to put all such information in a forum like this. All I can suggest is that you look at PowerShell Explained[^], and maybe the Linux shell at bash(1): GNU Bourne-Again SHell - Linux man page[^].

Find a nice book/primer on Unix commands. They mostly work on Linux as well. You need 'cd' to move between folders, 'ls to list files, type to display text files, 'whereis' to find the location of a file 'su' to switch to root access. most commands will list command line options if you add the --help option. Conversely, you can try 'man '+ command to get help on most commands. When I was working a lot on Linux/Unix, I found a book called "Tricks of the Un ix Masters". It helped immenselywith file editing and bash scripts. Good Luck and Dive In, Walt

Inside Look: A Day as a Field Engineer A Day as a Field Engineer I personally make anywhere between £50.00 to £200.00 per day depending on how active I was and how many jobs I took on. Converted to dollars, this is around $63.00 to $255.00. Some jobs are more complicated and take more time, but they end up paying more, and you’ll occasionally get an easy job that requires you to travel a long distance but ends up paying quite a good amount. It’s all very flexible and you’ll eventually learn to pick out the jobs that are within your specialty and pay well for the time spent. Do keep in mind that travelling can be costly and you’ll need your own tools unless the client specifies something such as picking up a certain type of hardware to use. Field Engineer is very flexible and differs from day to day, making it one of the best companies I’ve ever worked for.

Ben Whaley has a book "Unix and Linux System Administration Handbook" which is comprehensive. On YouTube, there is a video titled "Interview: Ben Whaley, co-author of the Unix and Linux System Administration Handbook" on tutoriaLinux's channel.

Look at the use of aliases as well. aliases-on-ubuntu/[^]. This will save time with long/repetitive bash scripts that are used often. Also here is a link for some basic terminal shell commands[^]
