This course offers a comprehensive, hands-on introduction to Linux system usage and administration through the openSUSE distribution. Designed for learners seeking foundational competence in Linux, the course begins by exploring the architecture, installation process, and desktop environment of openSUSE. It then builds toward applied command-line skills, including navigating manual pages, managing files and directories, creating file links, and working with software packages using the RPM utility.

Learners will progressively identify core components of the Linux system, demonstrate the use of essential commands, and apply administrative tools to configure and manage an openSUSE environment. By the end of the course, participants will be able to confidently navigate, execute, and manage real-world tasks on a Linux platform, preparing them for further system administration or DevOps learning paths.
