Various Questions

[TechGuy]

I have a few basic questions and I have looked at my Redhat 7 book but can't seem to find the obvious:

1. I downloaded a file thats in .zip format. How do I install that?
2. How do I see how much memory my RH7 system is seeing?
3. How do I see available hard drive space?

Thanks

You cancheck your free memory by typing free at the CLI or in a terminal. To check your available disk space, type df

1) You should have a utility called unzip installed. Try unzip (filename)

2) Run "free" in a terminal.

3) Run "df -h" in a terminal.

Yah, free, df and unzip are what you need.

I'd make a directory (mkdir dirname) and move that zip file in there, then unzip it - there should be a README or INSTALL file there. Just like in Windows, ya never know how a zipfile is setup....
