LFS

2024-01-25 | #lfs #linux #tips

LFS provides a fantastic learning experience that I wish I had undertaken many years ago. Although the documentation may seem unassuming at first glance, it is crucial to thoroughly read and comprehend it. At first, it might appear somewhat futile, but the process teaches you the essential components of a Linux system and how to construct them from the ground up. Despite its repetitive nature, the exercise helps you master shell commands and procedures.

Me and Linux

2024-01-07 | #debian #linux #me #slakware

I should start this story from the beginning, which was many years ago. I don’t remember the exact year; it was either at the end of my school or university years. I purchased my first Linux distribution. Why did I buy it? The internet was expensive, and downloading it wasn’t feasible, so I decided to purchase it. I paid only for the CD disks, receiving around 7 or 8 of them.

Gentoo is an intriguing operating system; however, it comes with its share of challenges.

AWS Glacier

2022-07-17 | #aws #AWS Glacier #cli #glacier

Some thoughts I used a software (name does not important) to access/upload/download files from/to AWS Glacier. The main reason why - was my laziness. I did not want to read documentation and understand how it works. For a while I did not have any issues, however with last update I could not get results of get inventory command. This changed my way on how to access to AWS Glacier. Glacier is good for cold backups, when you don’t need to touch them often.
