Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

Here are some packages that can be useful (noting it here for new comers):
Code:
# Fetching
* git
* nghttp2 # needed by git
* curl # useful as well as needed by git
# Compiling
* make
* guile # needed by make
* gc # needed by make
* glibc
I did not add extra packages for the xfce edition so as not to increase the size, but if it is more convenient, I will include these packages.
* but I think it's worth adding to simplify the work.
Right sndwvs.
We need balance between size and included programs.
Out of the programs I mentioned, I would include curl, which is a base package.
The other packages I was able to find because the package was not installed or reported missing .so files. With curl, git depends on curl but does not link to it, so I got a weird error about missing certificates.
Thunar was showing extra system partitions like /sys, /proc, /dev while auto mounting of USB drives was not working.
After some research, I found that udisks2 daemon was not able to start due to missing dependency on libatasmart.
On installing libatasmart and re-login, the extra mounts disappeared and my USB thumb drive showed up.

Reason: add screenshot
hdmi cable must be connected before turning on the board.
in recent images fixed this behavior is added.
HDMI cable was connected before boot (restarted many times to check), but still got this issue.
Definitely looks like an upstream bug / regression.
When I write poweroff command screen switches on and shows the shutdown sequence before poweroff.
Tried adding the udev rule and script on my system, didnt work so far.
Script reports this:
Code:
No protocol specified
Can't open display :0.0

Can't open display :0.0
