 This is Brian and welcome to our third lamp tutorial. This is installing a bone to we have our virtual machine running as you can see And in our previous tutorial we booted off the ISO image So this is all running inside a virtual machine. I simply wanted to make a separate tutorial so I could resize the recording area So you can see everything that's going on here. I'm going to select download updates while installing now You should note that doing that will increase your installation time, but we'll take your patch time down significantly Install third-party software That's kind of a hot issue in the Linux community Some people are completely against proprietary software if you are simply uncheck that box. I however don't mind proprietary software I love my mp3s. I love my flash video everything else. So I'm going to select install this It's recommended you have an internet connection and you should have at least 4.4 gigs of space We'll click next Now installing an operating system can get a bit lengthy, so I may pause this video periodically It's moments like this where the cursor just sits there. All right Installation type you can do something else or erase the entire desk Now notice if you are doing this alongside Windows, which I'm not going to cover in this tutorial There will be extra options and it will say like install alongside of other operating system Because this is a virtual machine. We want to in erase the disk and install a bone to now warning That's will delete any files you have on this desk Now this is not your hard drive. This is the virtual hard drive of the virtual machine When in doubt make sure it's the virtual machine hard drive We're going to install now and Boom they're off the progress bar race begins and you will see down here This is where the progress is this big progress bar and you'll get different notifications like it'll say installing contacting time server doing various tasks Sitting there for an erroneous a lot of time not really doing anything. There it goes The setup for a bone to is actually pretty user-friendly Select your time zone. I'm in Michigan, so I'm going to select Detroit So this is in case you've ever wondered where I am. I'm right here in Michigan I'm in a little town called Battle Creek, Michigan. It's if you ever heard of Kellogg cereal It's the same city that makes Kellogg cereal So in case you ask, yes, the entire city smells like cereal when they cook it. Sometimes it's just awesome. Sometimes it's just horrible Let's continue Now like I said Installing an operating system is not for the faint of heart. You may run into errors This will probably take a sizable amount of time. How long? Really depends on your internet connection speed, etc. Whether you chose to download third-party softwares and updates while you're installing Typically a good installation range is about 45 minutes to an hour. That does not include patching All right now we're going to select our keyboard layout click continue Now in case you're wondering why I'm doing all of this in a virtual machine. Well a it's extremely easy to record and B if we make mistakes, we can always take a snapshot and revert back to a snapshot. Something we'll cover later We need to give our name. I'm just putting test and for password. I'm just going to choose p-a-s-s-w-o-r-d That's right password The weakest password in the history of mankind, but I'm doing it for simplicity sake You should choose a strong password You should also do require my password to log in and encrypt my home folder I'm just going to choose login automatically because this is a test box that I do not care about click continue And this is the exceedingly boring part of watching the installation. You just literally watch the progress bar Um, I've only had one or two installations completely freak out and die. It's rare, but it does happen Um, linux does not have a blue screen of death. It has a purple screen of death. It's rare Some people don't even know it exists. I've seen it myself. It's not pretty You think the microsoft blue screen of death is ugly. Oh, you have not seen the purple screen of death I actually want that on a t-shirt the purple screen of death Anyways, um, if you're so inclined you can kind of thumb through these And you can kind of read a little bit about a boon to um boon to has a software center. So You I need to back up here linux has what's called a package um Basically, uh, this is a debian derivative Which means you'll have dub packages and the software center Allows you to search like a mini google and you can say I want a solitaire game or a php editor or lamp And it should be prepackaged ready to go So you don't have to configure the software. You don't have to do anything other than download it and click install And many times it's right on the same page. You literally hit the install button It downloads installs configures sets it up and runs it right for you Very simple very easy to use My daughter can do it. I mean come on um It comes stocked with a ton of software. It comes with um libero office, which if you don't know what that is It's a free version of office. It rivals Microsoft office. It's a fork of um open office um, basically what happened there was um open office decided to start Charging money. I think and then they forked it and it became libero office And it's it's compatible with microsoft office. If you're a college student, you don't want to spend a lot of money Don't buy office use libero office I'm probably mispronouncing that. I'm sure I'll get fan mail for that one. Um, you can install Pretty much. This is where you're going to get my linux speech I'm not a linux fan. I'm not even a linux guru, but I'm amazed at the amount I mean just the massive amount of free software that's out there Anything that you can think of there is a free open source version of it. For example, you're watching This videocast I'm recording it on kazam kazam is free On windows, I'd have to pay for that. Well, there's some free versions on windows, but you know what I mean For example office where you're just talking about that microsoft office costs hundreds of dollars Libero office free. You can't beat free. I'm sorry I made a lot of money in the software industry selling my software, but those days are long gone. Sad to say um music um Ubuntu is very media oriented. Um, I love the multimedia features in ubuntu. I love rhythm box playing my mp3s I love watching videos One thing I do love is ubuntu 1 cloud storage, which I wonder if there's a slide for that No anyways um ubuntu 1 cloud storage is you automatically get five gigs Of cloud storage. What is cloud storage? Um Think of a cloud but instead of filled with raindrops It's filled with servers storage servers that you have access to Free of charge cloud storage you have five gigs of cloud storage on the ubuntu 1 cloud What that means is you can set specific folders and say synchronize with cloud So anytime you modify one of the files in that folder or you copy something in or out of it It'll upload that modify it on the cloud So if you have your home folder Synchronized to the cloud your computer dies you do a fresh installation Reinstall ubuntu 1 pulls all your files down and you're right back where you were Easy to clean easy to use Um comes with um Firefox you can use no script. You can also install chrome Flash support I would recommend the 32 bit version if you're going to do that. I'm running the 64 bit version And back in the day it was a little tricky to get the 64 bit version of flash installed because they didn't actually support 64 bit for a while there In case you're wondering we are installing the 32 bit version Simply because I don't have the horsepower to do 64 bit virtualization. Yes. Here's um, we'll leave your office in action Is what they're talking about Actually, I've really really impressed with their software Um ubuntu is highly customizable We are running the desktop version of this For these tutorials instead of the server version because I want a desktop that you can see you can watch me interact with And you can do it on your own Sometimes command lines lose people And that's it for the slideshow So i'm going to go ahead and pause this And we will wait until the installation is over All right, we're back and we are still installing. Well, if you're really bored and you kind of want to get a jump start I am going to be following the w3schools.com php guide So feel free to go to w3schools.com Slash php and start digging into some of these. I'm not going to do their tutorials verbatim But I am going to follow similar syntax to this Um, meanwhile, I will be sprinkling in the lamp stuff like how to actually install lamp How to configure and interact with my sequel things that they just don't cover on here Once again, that's w3schools.com slash php And I will see you when this installation is done All right, if you got to this screen that means your installation was successful Go ahead and hit restart now And we're just going to sit through this and watch it reboot You'll see a buntu shutting down And switch over to Virtual box and you can see that it is currently running and you can see a little snapshot or a preview of what's going on inside the machine And it says please remove any installation media from the tray and press enter Now once this thing boots up you're going to want to patch your server um Some people don't believe in patching. Um, I do It's just one of those things. I mean patches are there for reason a they keep you from getting hacked I know this is a test box. We don't really care too much about it, but at the same time You also find that patches have critical flaws and fixes. That's why they're called a patch Now this will take a few seconds to boot up the first time you load it It will get significantly faster after the first time you can see our little hard drive light down here It's going crazy along with our network light But I just want to pull this up and give you a quick tour of a buntu. There we go. Now it's starting up And the more ram you give it the faster it will go I'm just kind of going over some php tutorials here You can do it virtual machine. We believe you you can do it All right Once you've made it to this point, you're pretty much going to know for sure that your your computer is going to run just fine If you've gotten an error message before you've gotten to this point Um, you will see a login screen here eventually But if you get an error message, you will um want to contact the support forums and see exactly what's going on If you chose the optional login, you will have a username and password. I chose the login automatically This is our buntu desktop. Um, this is called a buntu unity This is our dashboard if you press the windows key you'll get this and you can actually search for things like, um Update manager This is your taskbar And you just mouse over things and see there's your home folder. This uses nautilus As the file explorer And like I said, it's going to run a little slow the first time you run this thing Um, it will start speeding up as the first because you're going to remember the virtual machine's hard drive is Growing as files are being created in the background So this is the default file structure. If you've never worked with linux before, um This is called root to slash And then you have all these folders in it. We're not going to cover all of these But some that we are going to cover are going to be the ver um etsy And home home is where the heart is Home is your home folder. This is similar to like my documents and windows and you can see here's our Profile test and inside of here is where all our files are going to live When we eventually install Apache There's going to be a dub dub dub folder inside of our All right, so let's just close this out and you see there's some software on here like there's firefox You can actually browse the web with this bad boy. Um, there's libera offers and a bunch of those there's software center And boom 2 1 which I talked about cloud storage system settings, which is how you can go in and tweak various things All right, and this is similar to control panel and windows like you can actually go in and You probably see me once in a while. I'll do this where I will auto hide the launcher. Sorry. I thought I called that a taskbar earlier um in virtual machines, it's very difficult to get it to come back on but You get the concept there And you have workspaces which are multiple desktops if you're from Windows, this is a new concept to you. You won't know What this means, but basically you have four monitors built into one And holy updates batman 179 updates. We got some updating to do here Now before we update I'm actually going to shut this down. I want to show you so real quick Install drivers if you have proprietary drivers, um This will pop up and say, okay These drivers should be downloaded and activated. So let's actually download and activate that This is what I wanted to show you is your authentication password Um, if you're from windows xp, you've never seen anything like this before If you're from windows vista and windows 7, this is similar to user account control Actually, they stole the idea from linux. Whatever you do something's going to affect the system It's going to ask you for a password. So enter The password you gave it during installation and hit authenticate And it'll download and install that Additional proprietary driver remember during setup. We said download and install additional drivers. Well, this is part of it This is really helpful if you're using this on a physical box And you have like a really cool video card or something like that It'll actually pull down the better driver for it. You can see you have wobbly windows and all sorts of effects So we're just going to wait for this to install And while that's installing, let me kind of show you how to find things here You just go into dash And let's say you have no idea what you're looking for you want to say a few videos you just start typing in vid and well, there's videos folder How about movie? There's a movie player So you can see just by typing in you can get Like if we wanted monitor you can Get more granular in your search and there's different things here like here's home Here's filters So these would be programs these would be files Music videos so you can actually get really granular here Also, here's your trash can so if you ever delete anything you'll see garbage in your trash can You can simply right click and empty the trash Now if you don't like these icons because we're really not going to use liber office in these tutorials Simply right click and unlock from launcher whoops Very bare bones for your minimalistic. Here's system settings. We've been in there Ubuntu software center I want to show you guys this real quick while we're downloading and installing that driver in the background This may take a little bit longer because we are in downloading and installing that driver. That's Pretty system intensive for that virtual machine the Ubuntu software center Um allows you to well get anything. I mean it's literally A software store filled with free software. I mean everything on here. I shouldn't say everything most everything on here is free Once in a while you find something that's not free, but it's few and far between So like let's let this load for a minute Like I said, this is gonna be horrendously slow because I am installing that driver in the background here All right, you see the software center starting to come up And it's already got some applications in here And there's also some categories so like you can go into developer tools or educations or games And there's already some stuff in here like genie genie is an ide We may actually touch on genie in a little while one thing genie does if I can get it to load here Is it's an ide that people use for you guessed it php programming. Ta-da Very simple easy to use editor It's kind of like a a notepad on steroids if you will See that's what some code would look like and that's what the actual program would look like Now if you wanted to install this you'd simply click the install button And then it may prompt you for that authentication password And you'll see a little icon up here indicating that something's installing You can see your currently installed programs and your history And you can navigate in and around It's pretty amazing How much stuff is out here just dirt free And you can take a moment just kind of look around and see what's out here And if ever you're looking for anything like let's say You like me you like c++ Oh no matches Hmm I'm willing to bet that once we update there'll be more matches. But anyways, let's say you want a an image viewer There's gobs and gobs of image viewers out there Now one thing you should know you see this little orange thing over here when you get close that scroll bar pops up You actually mouse into that Click and then scroll that's one thing people don't like about unity It kind of does and does not bother me. I really don't care Let's close that See we're still installing our driver One quick shortcut Control alt t We'll bring up the terminal window. We will be getting very familiar with the terminal window This is where you will type in actual commands. For example ls for list That will list contents of a hard drive or cd root so you can change the root and then ls-l Show you the contents of the root drive. This is a virtual machine. So there's really not a whole lot on there I'm going to pause this video while my driver is installing All right after that proprietary driver was installed Um, we're going to close And nine times out of 10 they don't want you to reboot and what we're actually going to do now Is we're going to shut this down I'm going to show you how to create a snapshot Are you sure you want to close all programs and shut down? Yes We'll let a boon to shut down gracefully All right now our virtual machine is powered off. We're going to go to snapshots And we want to take a snapshot And we're just going to call this If I can spell install We'll close new install of a boon to And you see that's our current state. It's fresh install Now what that means is if we do something and we screw up we can revert back to this snapshot See how you can clone it. You can delete it. You can restore snapshot So if you start this virtual machine and do something horribly horribly wrong, you don't know what you did But oh my gosh into the world shut the box down click snapshots Go back to restore snapshots after you've selected the one that you want and this little current state We'll show you where you currently are So we're just going to start this thing back up I'm going to show you how to patch your machine and close that And this is why I really like virtualization technologies. It really allows you to explore without fear of Spending months and days fixing whatever you broke, but that's kind of how I learned computers Uh friend of mine named Scott a long time ago had a computer graveyard going on in his basement and he would You know cannibalize these systems together and then turn around and sell them to other people And it was it was a very big learning experience because you got to learn what was compatible and what wasn't and this was back when Internet was oh man. I think I had a blistering 14k dial up connection And I was so thrilled the day I got a 28k modem. Oh, I think I did the happy dance around my house all right, so Notice at the top of the screen. It says a bone to test box fresh install. There's my fire fox I'm just trying to get a feeling for how big that size is going to or that monitor is going to be And once you get to a fully functional desktop, we're going to actually open updates The update manager you can either search for it using the dashboard or it will pop up automatically Just want you to be aware of how to update your machine You can check for updates which if it pops up it'll automatically tell you how many updates are available And then you can install and you can kind of scroll through and see I've got 179 updates. So that's going to be it for this tutorial I'm simply going to click install updates It should prompt me for my credentials See there we go. That's it See you next time. I hope you found this educational and entertaining and thank you for watching Oh, and if you do patch your server be sure to set it down and do a snapshot
