I would like to introduce my website learningunix.com where you can learn basic unix/linux commands and practice in emulator directly on website  Smiley

The reboot command crashes the emulator.

Then I got angry and tried to break it, but the disk is hardwarily write-protected. How am I supposed to get angry and break things like that?

You shouldn't break anything, this is just fast web environment to practice for beginners.
Anyway, In near future I will provide something better.

Well, my first though was to do rm -rf /, but that didn't create the desired level of breakage because the root filesystem was mounted read-only. Where's the fun in that? So I remounted it read-write, and then this happened:
Code:
hda: task_out_intr: status=0x41 { DriveReady Error }                            
hda: task_out_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }                             
ide: failed opcode was: unknown
hda: task_out_intr: status=0x41 { DriveReady Error }                           
hda: task_out_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }                             
ide: failed opcode was: unknown
hda: task_out_intr: status=0x41 { DriveReady Error }                           
hda: task_out_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }                             
ide: failed opcode was: unknown
hda: task_out_intr: status=0x41 { DriveReady Error }                           
hda: task_out_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }                             
ide: failed opcode was: unknown
hda: task_out_intr: status=0x41 { DriveReady Error }                           
hda: task_out_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }                             
ide: failed opcode was: unknown
hda: task_out_intr: status=0x41 { DriveReady Error }                           
hda: task_out_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }                             
ide: failed opcode was: unknown
hda: task_out_intr: status=0x41 { DriveReady Error }                           
hda: task_out_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }                             
ide: failed opcode was: unknown
hda: task_out_intr: status=0x41 { DriveReady Error }                           
hda: task_out_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }                             
ide: failed opcode was: unknown
hda: task_out_intr: status=0x41 { DriveReady Error }                           
hda: task_out_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }                             
ide: failed opcode was: unknown
Whoops. I guess that's why it was read-only. Embarrassed

Did you make the PC emulator in javascript  in addition to the http://learningunix.com/ site?

The emulator was an interesting thing. Good for beginners to test out the commands.

Perhaps you also should make a small guide about how to get a low end VPS to play around with as well, lowendbox.com usually has many good offers. Or even how to set up for example vmware and install a linux version on it on the users own computer.

I liked the site, but you had to scroll a lot, what about being able to collapse/uncollapse the various sections? By clicking on the header of a section, you could collapse or uncollapse that section, and perhaps also a selection for viewing everything in flat mode.

The download link http://learningunix.com/Teaching/Unix/units-1.74.tar.gz appears to be dead.

To add some spice to the site, you might as well add a shoutbox, or a feedback box, to add some interactivity on the site.

You might also consider throwing up a multiple choice test the users can go through after having finished the tutorial, and perhaps there could even be a high score list! There could be lots of questions, of which a subset is presented for each multiple choice test.

Good initiative.

This is great, constructive comment, thank you very much  Smiley

I am not author of this emulator, as you can see there is only a link to other website.
I was thinking to create accounts for interested users on my server, but I am afraid of abuse.

About other suggestions, I will take them into account. Maybe even add some of them this weekend.
