36 prabinseth December 7, 2011 at 3:32 am
i think it should be
tar -cvf archive_name.tar dirname/
instead of
tar cvf archive_name.tar dirname/
please correct me if i am wrong.
37 RO December 7, 2011 at 12:02 pm
Re tar options format from the man page:
The frst argument to tar should be a function; either one of the letters
Acdrtux, or one of the long function names. A function letter need not
be prefxed with "-",
I have not used a dash prefx for a long time (maybe since it is not allowed (?) in Solaris version, which is what I use more than Linux for work like that).

@vivek - Install one of the linux distribution on your system. Ubuntu will be good for you.
If you want dual boot, Install ubuntu with WUBI that is "windows based ubuntu installer".
If you do not want dual boot, install virtual box on your windows and install ubuntu into it. You can fnd free ubuntu iso fle on ubuntu-website.
64 Wes June 8, 2012 at 1:36 pm
A good reference. Thanks!
If you had links to each command on an index at the beginning, it would make it easier to drill down to each command.

Hi Ramesh
Excellent

Yum and rpm only really apply to Red Hat/Fedora or rpm distributions - shouldn`t really be in this list IMO unless you also include the equally common apt for Debian
distributions, emerge for Gentoo etc etc.
A command I fnd useful is uname for fnding out various bits of system info but mostly by me for what kernel is currently installed
uname -r - display kernel number installed
uname -a - display all uname info in one string
uname -h - help on all switches available
