Ubuntu Complete Beginners Guide (Full Course in one video!)

[@MyReviews_karkan]

And for those who have heard some other people say "Linux isn't stable and it requires a lot of maintenance", don't believe that. A Linux distribution (especially these mainstream ones like Ubuntu) is as stable as it gets when you don't phuk with it. Linux gives the user the choice to make changes on the root level and if you don't know what you're doing or are just copying and pasting commands off of a random article on the internet, you're going to break things. I love Linux.

I have had Windows break itself after updates multiple times. My Ubuntu installation, and even my Arch installation have never broken themselves.

[@wayjamus2775]

@@vogonp4287 Mine did. Ubuntu 12 was stable, became progressively less stable through 16, 18 and for now 22.04. Now I can't download updates which is apparently quite common. So as a Windows user I'm in familiar territory which is what I was trying to get away from in the first place. And I have to learn a whole new language to try to fix the mess. And because the os is not as common as Windows, Google is not a friend as much as it's a casual acquaintance lol

Thanks Jay - I really struggled with installing and using Ubuntu 2 weeks ago -- if only I had known your video was already up! omg!

[@panjackson4876]

New Ubuntu user. I wish I had seen this before I watched all the other videos, would have saved me a lot of time. Thanks you!

[@FightforOlDaveG]

I’m just getting into coding for a future cybersecurity career and this information is priceless. Wow and thank you 🙏

[@DarthDweeb]

Here's your second review. Awesome book. Just finished reading it today. My head is swimming in server facts. Now I've got to start playing with all this new knowledge. It was easy to read and easy to understand.

[@abbas1872]

Thank you for the time and effort you put in to making these videos.

[@MrCrazyjoe259]

I was intimidated at first about using Linux but these videos help a ton. I am so sick of windows! i decided to duel boot Ubuntu for all my everyday desktop tasks and simply leave windows for my games. I am so impressed at how responsive it is, very enjoyable experience once all the necessary drivers are installed.

[@AnzanHoshinRoshi]

Thank you, Jay. If I had access to something like this in 2006...

[@LearnLinuxTV]

Same for me, but in 2002.

[@diskgrind3410]

There were so many of these types of tutorials back then. If you were serious about it.

[@larrywilliams8010]

Thanks for the video. One thing I think is worth mentionng is the clock. Windows generally expects the system (hardware) clock to be set to local time, whereas most Linux distributions set the system clock to UTC or GMT. In a dual-boot scenario, without reconfiguring one or the other OS, the clock will be wrong in one of them unless each OS automarically synchronizes the system clock, and even then it become IMO a battle between the two OS' and could lead to timestamp confusion.

[@johng.4959]

Exactly!!! The last time I dual booted I actually installed Mint with a dual boot configuration. My clocks were always screwed up!! I believe there is a workaround for this but I'm not sure if it's a permanent one.??

[@larrywilliams8010]

@@johng.4959 it should be easier to configure Linux to set the system clock to local than it is to tell Windows to set it to UTC.

[@jamesabernathy9744]

@@johng.4959 I set Windows to use UTC which made everything work fine

[@shahbazimmanuel9859]

This is the first time I watched the whole video in one go. Man you are really awesome. I have complete scenario of Ubuntu in one go. Blessings

[@deehannsmith419]

I REALLY like that u explain the details. IE: the diff between the versions n why I wud want to use one over the other and on download box...u discussed issue bout "IOS". It truly makes the difference for us beginners and for us beginners that desire to aquire the knowledge. I want to learn not just get it done. Please keep it detailed at every step! Oh yes...EVERY step is important. Often times a step is just assumed coz to u it is so universal/usual. But 4 us it is important. I c how that may happen 4 those of u that know alot. Thx.

[@mhasnainraza]

Amazing man! It was one of the most interesting tutorials I watch on KZbin. Keep up the good work! 😁

[@Prrt-rq3ym]

Very well done, thank you :) But it would be really good to add timstamps since the video is a full hour long so one can skip or revisit parts of the tutorial

[@nahum35]

An amazing video for all the new beginners in the Linux world!! I shared it on my LinkedIn profile as well.

[@TangoIndiaMike144]

Long-time linux user but here's a comment and like for the YT algo.

[@brentblume2837]

Ok. You did a great job walking through install. I really like how you touched on updates and additional software. I would suggest next time that you walk through backing up the sytem please.

[@Andy.N-_-]

Very detailed and concise step by step guide, enjoyable to watch thank you

[@patbrown9755]

Great video. I have been using Ubuntu for a while but learned a few tricks. Your directions are clear and concise. Thanks.

[@crude4u1948]

Not sure if I screwed up but my computer that I used to load the flash drive is saying that the drive is unreadable and needs to be formatted. So I can't tell if the files successfully loaded.

[@brijeshkumarchavda]

That means you successfully write the Ubuntu ISO file on the USB drive.

You could use your mobile camera to show boot menu, where screen recorder cant work. At least pics if not video.

[@aspinrecordkeeper870]

Currently struggling with an issue involving the screen being a violent green tint. I've tried messing with the settings, but to no avail. It seems that I might need an extension or to run a specific command, but because the screen is such a blinding green, I am getting no opportunity to learn how I run commands or install extensions.

I bought a new hp laptop. Basic for 320. Attempt to use the USBImager to load Ubuntu but I get this error message. Access is denied. Unable to dismount volume or lock the device. Any suggestions?

[@william8838]

When I choose the only USB drive showing, USB imager says please choose a valid device, so I tried to read first and it reads ok. After which I click on write and the process begins, finally when write completes Imager shows that it was written successfully but when look I in folder with File Explorer the drive is empty, how could this be?

[@Rhdefense]

Thanks. I wish I'd seen this before. I'm trying to install side-by-side with Windows 11 on a Surface Pro 8 and having all kinds of trouble.

[@lse123polis]

Beyond Dual Boot, multi boot Windows 10 with some Linux distributions, like Ubuntu, Manjaro, Fedora, and Ubuntu Server or CentOS server… so Windows 10 x1 plus x4 or x5 Linux Distributions, do you know in what order install the Linux Distributions…? And also Order of partitions created initially for each?

[@bobmirror7164]

Why dose the try Ubuntu "try" work with a thumb drive and dose not work with a Scan Disk 64gb micro SD card in a USB adapter? I used the same software.

[@ComputerGuyAndy]

While on the subject of drivers you don't describe or mention an File Manager, how to access it and/or where to locate drivers if any are, in fact missing. I'm trying to revive an old Dell Inspiron 9300 for a friend who "Hates Windows 10" and would rather learn anything else. Thanks So Much, for your time, effort and expertise.

The installation worked well, but the keyboard didn't work. I installed on a Asus TUF Gaming A15. Any idea?

[@dadofalltrades3641]

Thanks for this video Jay. It puts a lot in perspective on how to install ubuntu on our windows PC. I have an issue while installing though. The installation went fine when I set up dual boot on a dell vostro 14. It works perfectly fine. But, on my Lenovo Z5070, when I proceed to install 'Dual-booting Ubuntu with Windows 10' during the live session installation, I notice that i the next screen to split the existing partition between windows and Ubuntu, the installer does not show my main partiton of 1 TB hard disk which has about 700 GB free space. Instead, the installer seem to be showing only the windows recovery partition (which appears D drive in windows) of about 20GB. I never faced this issue on Dell which had windows 10 too. Any leas on how do I tackle this issue?

[@rawafkarim4469]

Its so easy to dual boot on single ssd but i faced issues when i installed it on hhd and windows on my ssd bootloader problems occur pc detects no OS

No option for dual boot in 21.04? I got a flash drive with 21.04 booted and working and tested everything on my AMD desktop, but each of the three times I have proceeded to begin installing it, I select the normal installation and instead of a window asking whether I want a dual boot installation or a clean install, I get a window I don't see in your videos showing space on my hard drive and giving me no option but to proceed with a clean install. Am I missing something?

[@XSamsaX]

I love your videos, they help me out a lot! Any plans on doing a beginner guide for debian?

Had recently updated my old Hp spectre to windows 11 and ran horribly swapped back to ubuntu, easily the best os for spectre

Hello Jay. I have a question. I installed apache on linux (by downloading the installer from website). Now I want to install wordpress. I want to know how to securely install wordpress. What permissions to give to files and giving the ownerships. Love your vids.

[@vishnukousthubh9438]

Hey I have a small problem I was trying out Ubuntu and my screen was almost white any idea on what to do ?

[@ilyaluv6186]

Jay, appreciate your work and tips! Though recent amount of time had passed since current video, could you please make it clear in a few spots for dual boot installation but in situation where each OS has its own separate physical drive, how would it differ from dual boot install in your video? And the same scenario with dual boot, separate drives, but on older Bios machines(non UEFI machines). Big Thanks!

[@quest2782]

hey this might not necessarily be a Linux quest more off a bios but I was able to install Ubuntu on my ssd drive but while having windows on my m.2 drive but but now i can't boot the drive with windows on it. when ever I put to boot the m.2 drive first or boot over ride it, the pc gets stuck at a terminal like message screen saying something like "boot a proper" drive/device something along those lines.

I have an SSD and a HDD on my laptop. I want to dualboot ubuntu with windows.

Please can u help me with that. 🙏

[@speigle71]

I noticed that during your Dual-boot session you did not do any disk partitioning , do you recommend installing along side Windows 10 or do a disk partition both in windows and Ubuntu.
