Mastering Linux Administration
By :

Here are a few questions and thought experiments that you may ponder, some based on the skills you have learned in this chapter, and others revealed in later parts of the book:
Hint: Software packages installed with GUI package management tools can be uninstalled from the same GUI (for instance, see Figure 1.36). Others can be removed using the package manager CLI tools (for instance, apt
, dpkg
, and rpm
).
Hint: Use Vagrant, a tool for building and managing VM environments.
Hint: In the Installing Linux graphical user interfaces section, we showcased the addition of KDE side by side with GNOME. Each user can log in with their GUI desktop of choice (see Figure 1.31).
Hint: The Additional software packages section may provide some guidance.
Hint: Yes. Use wsl --import
.
Hint: Create a bootable media of your new Linux distro and run the installer. Choose to upgrade when prompted. You may also use the command line. Check out the related CLI tools for your Linux distro (for instance, do-release-upgrade
for Ubuntu).
