FUN WITH LINUXđ€Ș
Hello Everyone!! Iâm here with a interesting blog for people who think linux is so boring.
HmmâŠ.to say , itâs not! Well you will agree that linux is fun as you go through my blog.đ
To download or install any software we need to configure âyumâ command.
STEPS TO CONFIGURE âYUM â IN YOUR SYSTEM:
STEP 1: To install any software we need to have a DVD or â.isoâ file attached to system. Here, I used redhat OS and rhel8 iso file.
link for iso file download : https://archive.org/download/rhel-8.4-x86_64-dvd/rhel-8.4-x86_64-dvd.iso
STEP 2: After attaching the dvd , click on activities, go to files
STEP 3: Click on the dvd file and you will be redirected into it.
STEP 4: After entering into the dvd file, we will find two major files namely AppStream and BaseOS.
STEP 5: Now, right click on white space and choose âopen in terminalâ. We will be directly driven to the dvd terminal.
STEP 6: After opening terminal , run âpwdâ command to get the path of that folder. Copy that path.
STEP 7: After copying the path . Go to repos.d folder using command :-
â #cd /etc/yum.repos.d
and create a file using text editor with file extension â.repoâ , otherwise the configuration will fail.
STEP 8: Write the following code in the text editor and save it
STEP 9: Open any browser and search for ârhel8 rpm repositoryâ
STEP 10: you will find following links . click on the marked link.
STEP 11: scroll down and find a command for installation of yum.
STEP 12: Copy the command and paste it in the terminal and run it. âyum â will automatically configure.
After configuring âyumâ command , to run the fun commands we need to know the softwares that they support.
I made a small video clip. Do refer it for installation of funny commands.
