Fiddle with RB Command-line
Congratulations!! You have got the Board console ready using "minicom" in Ubuntu Linux or "Putty" in Windows environment.
You are now ready to play with the RuggedBoard-A5D2x.
As the RuggedBoard runs a Yocto based custom Linux OS, you might want to learn a few basic Linux commands that we think might be handy for you to peek though the RB.
Here's a list of a few commands we suggest you to try :
ls- Lists the Files and Folderspwd- Print Working Directory, Prints the current directory the user is working on.cd- Change Directory, Used to switch directories from the current directory.touch- It is used to create a file without any content. The file created using touch command is empty. Ex:touch test.txt, creates a file named test.txt in the current directory.mkdir- Make Directory, this command creates a new directory. Ex:mkdir test, creates a directory named test.rm- Remove, this command is used to remove files or folders. Ex:rm test.txt, removes the test.txt file. Ex:rm -rf test, removes the test folder created. Note: It doesn't prompt the user before deleting the file.cp- Copy, used to files.mv- Move, used to move the files.ps- Displays current active processes.chmod- Change File Permissions, Ex:chmod 777 filename.
