How to ask for help

  1. Formulate your question clearly and to the point
  2. Include any relevant terminal output such as errors using pre-formated text
  3. State the version the Linux distribution version you are using
  4. What are you trying to achieve and what have you tried so far

How to reply

  1. When asked to provide additional information make sure to include it in your reply.
  2. Simply stating “I got an error”, or "It does not work" without any further information we cannot help and you will distance yourself from the solution.
  3. Make sure to include any error massages, terminal output or screenshots

Conventions

  • # - requires given linux command to be executed with root privileges either directly as a root user or by use of sudo command
  • $ - given linux command to be executed as a regular non-privileged user
