Learning Linux!
by BigTruss from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5MAY5)
Hi All!
First year using Linux here and loving it so far. Got pretty into Computer technology/science/engineering (whatever, I just love learning how things work) over the last couple of years, but have been exclusively on Windows until very recently (started off gaming).
I'm a chemical engineer by degree, but hopefully looking to transition into something more akin to computer engineering down the line, and have been trying to self-teach programming/computer architecture on my free time.
I started with a quick WSL install so I could learn how to use Git 'properly' from the command-line, and decided to give a full-fledged distribution a try. Jumped into an Ubuntu distribution, and have been pretty hooked since. Still pretty new, but have my Ubuntu install, and just installed Manjaro to try it out today. Also finished (almost) a LinuxFromScratch install this week, (actually have a pending post about getting a kernel panic error when switching to my NVMe Drive, with drivers compiled into the kernel, hopefully my post hits that forum soon).
Look forward to participating in LQ!
