Chapter 29 Modifying the ux Installation Mechanism

.

Lin Mu rubbed his sore eyes, looked at the time displayed on the computer, and found that it was already past one o'clock in the morning. Unexpectedly, he had been watching for more than ten hours. Lin's father and mother Lin had to go to other provinces to do business these days, and there was no one at home, so before leaving, Lin's mother told him to go to bed earlier, he would have been thrown behind him.

Lin Mu's eyes were already a little tingling, so he turned off the computer and climbed into bed to rest. In the past two days, Lin Mu searched the Internet for a lot of information about Linux. Lin Mu, who had never been exposed to the Linux operating system, has finally got some understanding of it. Linux was created by the world's most famous computer programmer and hacker Linustorvalds. At that time, it was a minix operating system that Linustorvalds was not satisfied with the teaching use, so he designed a system core Linux0.01 out of his hobby.

Later, linustorvalds put this core code on the Finnish ftp site for free download. As more and more programmers in the world join, the operating system with Linux as the kernel finally entered a stage of rapid development. As long as linux is used as part of the linux distribution, these generations are mainly written by individuals, loosely organized teams, as well as commercial organizations and volunteers. Currently, more than 400 generations are actively developed in the world, and there are about twenty most commonly used distributions.

The most popular Linux distributions are: debian, redhat, opensuse, mandriva, centos, fedora, vet, etc., and the two most popular in China are: ubuntu and Hongqi Linux.

The reason why Lin Mu wanted to create a Linux version of the operating system was not to make money. In his mind, the Internet should share everything for free, and Microsoft sold Windodobsp at a high price;    "Linux is indeed to my heart, but, let alone the information about Windotu, Hongqi Linux and Windows, it also took more than half an hour to understand how to install a Linux distribution operating system under the Great Wall system, that is, to use a virtual machine to install it.

A virtual machine, therefore, is a virtual computer. Using common virtual machine software on the market, you can simulate one or more virtual computers on a physical computer. These simulated computers will work like real computers, such as installing operating systems, installing software, accessing network information, etc. For users, a virtual machine is just a program in a physical computer, but for programs in a virtual machine, it is like working in a real computer.

Therefore, some netizens who like to try out and always download various operating systems from the Internet often use virtual machines to install these operating systems. For a novice, the Linux operating system will definitely be a bit confused for the first time to install it. Just like Lin Mu, this guy carved the downloaded Iso format ubuntu operating system into a CD CD, and then took it to his old notebook to install it. However, it was stuck in the partition area. Lin Mu chose to install it automatically. When the system was successfully installed, Lin Mu found that the entire hard disk was divided into a zone, and the data in the hard disk was lost.

This scared him into a cold sweat. Until he saw on the Internet that many people were installed in virtual machines, he spent some time to fully understand the operation of the virtual machine, and then used the vmtu operating system in the Great Wall semi-intelligent system. After a day of trial, Lin Mu summarized that in addition to using A.com, there is no need to worry about viruses (comrades who often use A.com, please install Linux in the virtual machine for fear of poisoning). Ubuntu13.04 failed in terms of ease of use and operability, and I really should have installed it." When Lin Mu knew that the powerful or-type mutant virus on the Internet could not run under Linux system for a while, Lin Mu had a little interest in the Linux system.

"I'm afraid, this Linux is comparable to Windobsp in terms of security;   The next day, Lin Mu sat in front of the computer after breakfast. Speaking of which, from the time he bought this Asus esc1000, Lin Mu turned off the computer only once or twice, and the stability of this small supercomputer-level machine is surprisingly strong. Its "sex" ability and stability "sex" are simply not comparable to Lin Mu's "first wife". In addition, it is equipped with the world's only Great Wall semi-intelligent system, Lin Mu simply "loves it".

Lin Mu shouted to the computer: "Little Panda, you've started working. After my fifteen-hour trial, the first task I'm giving you now is: simplify the installation mechanism of ubuntu13.04."

Recalling yesterday's installation, Lin Mu was scared and sweating. "This damn Linux installation mechanism has been upgraded to so many versions, and the installation mechanism is still so difficult to understand. Fortunately, I did not install it on this computer, otherwise it would be troublesome if the data is lost." When I remembered that when installing ubuntu, Lin Mu chose to install it manually, and he was confused about the /dev/sdb and so on. He had no choice but to back down and choose to install it automatically. However, he didn't expect that ubuntu divided his entire hard drive into a zone at one time, and then installed the system in this zone.

For this reason, Lin Mu's first thing for Pandas to do is to make the installation mechanism of the Linux operating system easier. Lin Mu can't think of the installation method that is easiest for novices to get started directly. However, he can show the partition name and Chinese display during installation. This will not be so easy to install errors.

As for choosing ubuntu as the Linux distribution to be modified, it is used by the two distributions of ubuntu and Hongqi Linux in China, and Lin Mu had a clear preference for it when he saw ubuntu for the first time, so he chose it as the Linux system to be modified.

"Master, please tell us in detail about the requirements you want to make improvements so that the little panda can modify the ubuntu system image file on the hard drive."

Lin Mu responded, and then told the little panda what he had just thought.

"According to your requirements, the general idea is to make the installation mechanism of ubuntu simple. The little panda directly modified the installation mechanism to Microsoft's Windobsp; "Oh, can you actually become like this?" Lin Mu suddenly became interested. After thinking about it, Lin Mu asked the little panda to modify the installation mechanism of ubuntu13.04 to install with Windotu.

The little panda then asked Lin Mu to wait for a few hours, and then modified the iso image file in the B disk. "Hmph, Lao Bao, you will windobsp;   Lin Mu opened the browser and went to the forums of major software companies. As expected, a large number of netizens kept complaining about windododobsp;   What made the netizens dismayed was that no hacker or organization had successfully tried windodobsp;    "Don't worry, I will definitely contribute a free operating system to you in the near future, and this system will surpass windobsp;                                                                                                                                                                               �

A name is "windobsp;   It turns out that according to the web name "zero's apprentice", the founder of the Windows operating system developed by Microsoft this time, linustorvalds said in the post, "zero's apprentice" tells everyone that although the Linux operating system is not as good as Windows in some aspects, it is better than the Windows operating system. Then "zero's apprentice" lists the download addresses of Linux and Windows distributions in a very detailed manner. Among them, the most highly praised are the modified Linux version of the domestic Yulin Mufeng and the same domestic Hongqi Linux.

"Damn, who is this zero's apprentice? When did I accept the apprentice? I'm also planning to release the Linux system. If you do this, who will use it when I release the system in the future?" Seeing nearly a thousand replies below, Lin Mu knew that the Yulin Mufeng and Hongqi Linux systems will definitely usher in a download frenzy today.
