Practicalities: event-support@csc.fi
The course will give the participant the basic knowledge and skills to use the Unix shell, how to navigate around, copy files and launch applications. We also discuss on how to install/access Linux on/from your own laptop. In addition to being useful on CSC's servers, basic unix skills may come in handy elsewhere too, and knowing the basics makes later self study much easier. The hands-on part also will include a demonstration on how to set up one's own Linux system.
If Linux is not familiar, you can prepare by looking at the materials of the previous workshop.
