Information for international students
NOTE. The course registration is closed due to overbooking
NOTE. The course is not about fundamentals of Linux. Whatever that would be, digging into kernel and compiling drivers.
The course is about serious BASH scripting and using the traditional GNU command line tools (such as cat cut tr grep find etc).
In this sense, the course name can be explained as follows. It's "UNIX fundamentals", but UNIX is registered trademark and whatnot, so we were scared to use that name. UNIX has a philosophy: "small programs that can be strung together through a command line interpreter using pipes". That can is one fundamental of UNIX, and that's what we will be doing: combining the small programs into greatness. In this process, BASH is just a tool we choose to use.
So if you think you're entering a course about Linux administration, you're not. There's another course for that.
Thank you & welcome!
