Terminal cheat sheet
Alpine / postmarketOS is quite different from your typical Linux distro. Let's create a terminal cheat sheet that explains:
- basic apk commands
- how to start/stop services
- where to find log files (for tinydm etc.)
-
export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/$(id -u)
is needed to launch graphical stuff - how to install man pages
- how to get a decent shell (I like
zsh
+grml-zsh-config
...) - install-makedepends (#953 (closed))
- ...
...as wiki page, and display a prominent link to it in /etc/motd
, so it gets displayed when logging in via SSH.
(This isn't much effort, but gives a big benefit. So I'll assign it to the next planned release.)
TODO:
-
write wiki page -
create URL shortcut, postmarketos.org/cheatsheet -
create MR to display it in /etc/motd (maybe remove some of the other links from the motd, so it doesn't get overlooked in the noise)
