Question

Please help with this linux lab. Please include screenshots as I keep getting errors when I attempt this lab. Thank you in advance

Example 1

Enter the system root directory

cd /

pwd

[this command prints working directory]

Here is how to go back to your home directory:

cd ~

pwd

Example 2

Use the Change directory command

cd /labs/lab1/ohio

inside the ohio folder use the Touch command to create a file called

ohiostate.txt

/labs/lab1/ohio/touch ohiostate.txt

Use the pwd and ls to verify your work.

Example 3

Create the following directory structure:

1. Create directory colors off your home directory.

2. mkdir colors

3. inside the colors directory create four directories: blue, red, yellow, green.

4. mkdir blue

5. mkdir red

6. mkdir yellow

7. mkdir green

8. inside each directory (blue, red, yellow, green) create use the Touch command create the following files:

9. Inside the blue directory create files blue01.txt and blue02.txt.

10. Inside the red directory create files red01.txt and red02.txt

11. Inside the yellow directory create files yellow01.txt and yellow02.txt

12. Inside the green directory create files green01.txt and green02.txt

13. Create new files with the same names as in steps 9 through 12 but with sh extension example blue01.sh. So each folder will have 4 files two with txt extension and two with sh extension.
