Video: Exploring the Linux Filesystem Hierarchy

 This is the second video on my YouTube Channel, @InformationTechWithDave:



Understanding how the Linux filesystem is crucial for system administrators, enthusiasts, and developers who need to manage and troubleshoot Linux computers.

In this video we''ll learn how to move around the Linux filesystem, display directory contents, and what the different directories or folders are used for.

YouTube Channel: InformationTechWithDave

Earlier this month I started a new YouTube channel to share some of the knowledge I've accumulated since changing careers into IT back in 1999. So far I have uploaded videos on topics related to Linux and cybersecurity. I have plans to expand on that in the future.

My channel's home page is: https://www.youtube.com/@InformationTechWithDave

The first video was this one:


Later videos have better audio because I bought a Fifine K650 USB microphone at Microcenter. I then added this pop filter from Amazon.
