Hope you have installed Ubuntu Linux and successfully able to open Linux terminal.

Please Note: If you are using Windows OS, You can skip this step for now. But this commands will be used to play arround with ruggedBOARD-A5D2x. Because ruggedBOARD-A5D2x runs on Linux OS.

In your terminal, type

Ubuntu@pc:~$ ls

and hit enter.

The ls command, short for “list”, tells your computer to list all of the file names for the folder you are in

Ubuntu@pc:~$pwd

and hit enter. prints the current working directory.

Similarly Create your own Directory (Folder) called “Work”

Ubuntu@pc:~$ cd ~ Ubuntu@pc:~$ mkdir Work

Change your directory to Work //cd means change directory

Ubuntu@pc:~$cd Work

In similar way create few more directories under “Work” for ruggedBOARD Ex: Ubuntu@pc:~$ Work/ls

If you want to get more manual about any commands use Command called “man”

Syntax : Ubuntu@pc:~$ man command

Ex : Ubuntu@pc:~$ man mkdir

Similarly follow the other commands to get more hands-on the Linux-OS

Note: cd /bin -- you could find the all commands which are available in Ubuntu-OS

cp, mv , touch, find , grep, ps , chmod,......etc.
