Answer» hi, i would like to SET up linux environment on window xp. i know that there are vmware and CYGWIN but i'm not very sure if that is needed for my purposes.
What I wanna do is to practise linux command (like wat we do in putty), make some installation through linux. e.g, installing mysql, php but not on the live site..I would like to be proficient in it. being a developer, this would be a great advantage.
Your help will be very much appreciated. tkstake a look here for some links to get unix tools for windows. you can get the BASH shell here. though its an old VERSION, its good enough for practice. otherwise, just USE cygwin, or microsoft services for windows.Or install a Linux distro in VMWare or VirtualPC.
or don't even need to practice shells at all. Get a programming language like Python/Perl. Most of the THINGS that are done with bash + shell tools can be done with just one good language.hey ppl, thanks for the suggestion. i will look into it ..
