This section covers everything Linux. Here, you will find extensive, step-by-step tutorials on how to install and setup Linux distributions in multi-boot environments, as well as reviews of said distributions tested on real, physical hardware. Moreover, I have also published numerous guides, tips and tricks on how to work on the command line, setup and configure your Linux environment, things like compilation, drivers, file and printer sharing, network connectivity, security practices, and more.
A few select, recommended articles are shown as thumbnail previews just underneath this paragraph. A full listing of published articles is available farther below.
