yum

Geek post.

I've been using Ubuntu and Ubuntu-based Linux distribution for quite a while now, some 4 years give or take. And I consider myself an intermediate user, cause there's lots of shit I still don't know how to do in an efficient way. But, the thing is, I learned most of the stuff I know in Ubuntu, so, there are certain things that I know that don't transfer to other distributions...and I recently realized that, cause I had to install some stuff to the server that my employer's site runs on.

So, I have to do everything in a terminal cause I connect via SSH. And what do you know, the server has CentOS, which is based on Red Hat. Most of the stuff I knew did work, but when it comes to installing stuff, since Ubuntu and CentOS use a different type of packages, you can't install stuff the same way (unless you compile the software yourself, which is what I had to do to install Git).

yum install :)

But yeah, I enjoy very much working on a console, cause I feel more productive (if I know what I have to do), and I like how it looks like if I was a total geek, haha. And here's hoping I become an expert in due time :D

Btw, the post is called yum, cause if you're familiar with Ubuntu's "apt-get" command, well, the CentOS (and all distros that use rpm) "equivalent" is the "yum" command
