Hey Yall!

I'm jeff from NE Ohio, USA. A SWE student in my first year, and I've become a huge Linux nerd. I've been hanging around the Fedora Project, and I've decided I want to focus my career on Linux, specifically RHEL.

I can't afford to take any of the courses, but I'm using whatever free resources I can find and getting hands-on learning from contributing to the Fedora project. I highly suggest joining the Fedora community; everyone there is super helpful and nice.

The plan is to get my RHCSA by the end of the year.

Hello @_Aman_ !

Welcome to the community! Sorry for late replying to your post but I have something really useful to start your linux journey !

For starters , please go throught these introductory learning videos on Linux basics here : https://www.redhat.com/en/services/training/rh024-red-hat-linux-technical-overview

You just need to fill the form and you can access those.

Once you are familiar with linux, you can start with our learning and certification journey - with courses like RH124 and RH134  and then you can have a certification exam RHCSA

That's all for you now! Please go through this information and let me know for any queries ! You can also get a lot of info on this community regarding the same.

Well I'm sorry for my late reply! lol

Thank you, this is awesome!

A little update on my journey, I finished my first term of college, and I'm really starting to dig in deep on learning RHEL and other Red Hat stuff. I just picked up an old Dell OptiPlex 7090 with an 8th gen I-7 and two 12 TB HDD. I plan to use it to learn RHEL and also host Jellyfin, NAS, remote dev env and whatever other stuff I want to mess with.

I wanted to run OpenShift or OKD on it, but I don't think my pc has the juice… I'll probably just go with proxmox even though I rather have everything running in podman containers instead of VM's because to me, they are easier to manage. (also, I'm really trying to learn Red Hat stuff lol)

Thanks for this info and I'll cya around.
