This question would be for a Linux veteran. Is there any where you could guide us newbies to a command "cheat sheet" that would be easy to use?
I am looking for something I could download, and then cut and paste commands. For instance, I just did a dual boot installation on my laptop. I had to update the Linux kernel and then my firewall blocked everything. Someone gave me the command "sudo ufw disable" which disabled my firewall, and let me download another firewall and install it. Where does one find such commands? It amazes me the number and types of commands some people know. I am looking for something basic, apt-get, install, configure a, purge, things like that. I am not looking to be a power user, only solve problems. I think at this point power user commands would only confuse me. Anyone have any great cheat sheet or site, or would be willing to make something up for us newbies?
