Where can I find other commands like these 2 psinfo and aplay -l and what they mean. I know there is a lot more of them but I don't know where to look. If there is a book or PDF out there or some where? I want to learn more about Linux.

Hi,
Glad to hear you want to learn more about Linux.
Here are a few important commands:

A few of them require you to be root user before executing. Simply do this to become root.
Code: Select all
guest@porteus:~$ su
Password: toor
root@porteus:/home/guest#
Good luck

I tried loading it as epup but failed, URL invalid. That would be a neat addition to my epup reader...

Not really want you to load the free books (they want info in exchange for puplic domain books, which is kind of a scam), but that above page has some neat background on backup strategy and other admin tasks.
