“The Linux Command Line” by William Shotts is excellent.

Load up Linux Mint and VirtualBox (to run Windows/linux/Apple/Android/BeOS-Haiku/etc. O/Ss.

There can be some issues, but the Web has plenty of info.

Some hardware issues, but older hardware seems to be well supported

I think I may still have the book for my Yggdrasil distribution I got back around 92.

I started using Unix at work about 1990.

Thanks for posting this list. It’s very helpful to me.
I run Mint 18.3 Sylvia on my laptop and love it.

[[Do you want to learn about Linux?]]

No not really- I juss wanna use it with no issues lol- too old to learn new tricks

But now i spose i gotta look at it because I’m a masochist- thanks a lot lol

Question- it used to be we had to isntall software in linux but now when i go to update by downloading a file, there doesn’t seem to be any way to actually install it- it just runs when the right icon is clicked- (not an exe, but like the exe)- is that pretty much standard now?

For instance, I wanted to install an older version of firefox, and i downloaded the file for it but there was no way to actually install it- I had to create a sim link to the exe like file on my desktop to run it-
