Hi HeatOfLisboa67, and welcome to the forum :slight_smile:

Any questions in particular ?

Or maybe you’re after some useful resources ? … maybe see here:

not in particular perhaps what is the best way to approach learning command line from terminal?

That’s a hard question to answer, what suited me may not suit everyone else … I just learned by jumping in at the deep end and researching questions asked on this forum. I’m not a “book learner”.

There are plenty of online resources though :wink:

One tip is to open a terminal and use;
man
e.g.
man man
man ls
man -k bash

I learnt by purchasing the book;
Essential System Administration

I don’t want it easy however there is a time and place for difficult tutorials I’d like a user friendly option of learning is Mint the best for the purpose or should I have another distribution?

Mint is as good as any other … it’s based on Ubuntu, so 99% of Ubuntu tutorials/documentation/articles/help will apply to it, and there’s plenty out there.
