  • I just love the teaching ad the learning experience I am getting  -- Jacob Samba (Udemy Student)


  • Imran Afzal might be my favorite teacher I've EVER had. He is funny, and engaging. The course was easy to follow, and with no experience starting I am now extremely comfortable with Linux, and actually really like it. He does make you do your googles, but this is not a bad thing especially considering the nature of IT and documentation to solve your own problems. I highly recommend.  -- Vanessa Diaz-Goumond (Udemy Student)


  • The course is run very well and I really like the handouts and the homework that is assigned. The homework helps me learn and continue with the learning process even when adult life is still progressing forward.  -- Thomas Rogers (Udemy Student)


  • Such an amazing instructor. Imran must have put in a lot of effort in structuring the course and taking the student step by step, he takes his time in explaining everything, from what Linux is, how to down load it, coding, etc. I have taken other courses from Imran. I am a student for life. Keep it up and please keep preparing more courses for please like us who can benefit from your way of teaching, knowledge and experience.

  • In the first place I say a big thank you to the instructor for making such a great course. I was afraid to learn Linux. I now feel very comfortable with Linux. I have understood both the concept behind and the practical as well. I would recommend every one who is NEW to Linux and wants to grab it once and for all without wasting time to go ahead and ENROLL. You will not regret it. I would like the instructor to do same for WINDOWS SERVER ADMIN., I don't seem to find any better and beginner oriented course out there that could be matched with this course. To me, it is the BEST Linux Course on Online. I just started some real world projects with Linux after this great course, I was new to Linux and in just a month I am on the command line always playing.  -- Opoku Bright (Udemy Student)

Fixing Corrupted FileSystem Preview 20:30

Most common causes of file system corruption are due to improper shutdown or startup procedures, hardware failures, or NFS write errors. Shutdown should be done through one of the system shutdown commands; these sync the file system first. Never shut the system down by turning off the power. Taking a mounted file system off-line or physically write-protecting a mounted file system can also corrupt the disk. Improper startup includes not checking a file system for consistencies (fsck) before mounting it and not repairing any inconsistencies discovered by fsck. Hardware failures could be a bad block on disk, a bad disk controller, a power outage, or accidental unplugging of the system. Software errors in the kernel can also cause file system corruption
