Errata for Using and Administering Linux – 2nd Edition

0

This page contains errata for the 2nd Edition of my Using and Administering Linux three-volume set of books.

I’m sure there are more errors than have been reported so far. If you encounter an error, please email me at LinuxGeek46@both.org. I’ll keep this as up to date as possible.

Volume 1

Page 99-100: Although I suggest using an external USB storage device for your experiments, you can also use an internal device that has at least 300GB of storage available and which can be partitioned and allocated for use by the virtual machines. Depending upon the current p[artitioning of your storage device, and the choices you make when creating space for the VMs, the device IS may be different than shown in the book. You’ll need to make adjustments for that as you perform the experiments pertaining to creation of the VMs.

Page 472: Experiment 16-1, the file /boot/grub2/i386-pc/boot.img no longer exists due to changes in how GRUB uses the configuration files. Use the file /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/boot.img here and in other places where the file /boot/grub2/i386-pc/boot.img is specified. This is the case on Page 473 also.
