About the Book

Learn how to install, use, and administer CentOS 8 with the help of expert guidance and engaging examples Key Features • Become familiar with a popular and stable Red Hat Enterprise Linux distribution • Gain a thorough overview of the operating system by learning concepts such as disk partitioning, KVM virtualization, and more • Explore advanced topics such as logical volume management and firewall configuration Book Description Linux kernel development is perhaps the world's largest collaborative project to date. With CentOS 8 Essentials, you'll be given easily accessible information to install, use, and administer the CentOS 8 distribution. The book begins with a concise history of the Linux operating system and CentOS. You'll then learn how to install CentOS 8 using the dual boot configuration so that it can coexist with Windows on the same drive. After installing CentOS, you'll learn GNOME 3 — the desktop environment included with CentOS 8 that helps you navigate through the distribution. As you progress, you'll explore the Cockpit web interface that enables you to perform tasks via a web browser instead of using the command-line. You'll then take a brief tour of the Bash shell environment and learn ways to administer a system that doesn't have a desktop or a Cockpit interface. While learning advanced concepts, you'll see how to manage swap space efficiently and control the performance of CentOS 8. By the end of the book, you'll have all the essential information you need to comfortably start using the CentOS 8 distribution. What you will learn • Work in dual boot environments • Install and manage packages with App Streams • Perform systemd unit configuration tasks using the systemctl command-line tool • Configure the RHEL 8 firewall • Share files with Linux and Windows systems using Samba and NFS • Deploy KVM-based virtual machines Who this book is for CentOS 8 Essentials is an ideal book for you if you want essential information to start using the CentOS 8 distribution. Whether you are a developer, a system administrator, or a tech lover with no previous Linux administration background, you'll be able to start your adventure with this book.
