A boot device is any piece of hardware containing the files required for a computer to start

Typically a cd. For many purposes like installing a new operating system or repairing the os or live booting an operating system. But CDs are not convenient. Making a usb drive bootable make it very convenient as well as useful . in this article we wil see how to make usb pendrive into a bootable device

MAKING A BOOTABLE PENDRIVE [Windows]

MAKING BOOTABLE WINDOWS USB PENDRIVE

    Making a bootable windows pendrive is very easy, it doesn’t even require any additional software other than a iso disk mounter .

STEP 1; insert the pendrive in to the computer [AT LEAST 4GB]

1.vim

vim is a free and open source terminal text editor that’s in use since the ’90s. It lets users to edit plain text files using efficient keybindings.

Some people thinks it is difficult to use but exiting Vim is one of the most-viewed questions but once you get used to it, it becomes your best ally in the command line.

2.suble

Its an alternate gui text editor,it is the command line command to open a file in the popular sublime text editor it is a gui text editor .but you need to install the sublime text editor to use this command

3.which

The which command prints the full path of shell commands. If it can’t recognize the given command, it’ll throw an error.

For eg, we can use this to check the folder path for Python

4.shred

If you want a file to be impossible to recover,then  shred can help you with this task. This command rewrites the contents of a file again and again until the final result becomes extremely difficult to recover.

5.whoami

The whoami command (stands for “who am i”) displays the username currently in use

6.whatis

whatis simple prints a single-line description of any other command, making it a helpful reference:

It gives a single line definition for the  command or programs .

7.wc

Wc stands for “word count,” and as the name suggests, it returns the number of words in a text document or a text file:

wc long.txt

# 37 207 1000 long.txt

Let’s breakdown the output of this command:

• 37 lines
• 207 words
• 1000 byte-size
• The name of the file (long.txt)

If you only need the number of words in the file, use the -w flag:

wc -w long.txt

8.uname

uname(short for “Unix name”) prints the operative system information, which comes in handy when you know your current Linux version.

Most of the time, you’ll be using the -a (–all) flag, since the default output isn’t that useful:

9.neofetch

Neofetch is a command-line interface tool that allows users to display information about your system — like shell,kerbal  version and hardware information — next to an ASCII logo of your Linux distro:

10.wget

World Wide Web get is a utility that allows the user to  retrieve content from the internet. It has one of the largest option flags available.

        Hacking others without their consent is punishable by law the exception are for security reasons and ethical hacking so this article is for purely for educational purposes

WHAT IS HACKING ?

                Hacking is a process of gaining access to the host computer by exploiting weakness and security vulnerabilities in the network. There are mainly two types of hackers black hat hackers and white hat hackers .

Black hat hacker- this type of hacker hacks into the system with malicious intent like stealing information to sell or for blackmailing or just to sabatosh the system.

White hat hackers-this type of hacker hacks the system to know the weakness and tell the owner of the system / network about its weakness and help them rectify the vulnerabilities these hackers are employed by security companies as well as governments

TOOLS:

                Hacking tools are just computer programs that are used to crack or break the security of the computer system  and networks by exploiting the known vulnerabilities. There are many hacking tools created for different purposes. These tools make pentesting and hacking easy

What is a linux distro

    Linux distro

        A Linux distribution, often shortened to Linux distro, is an operating system compiled from components developed by various open source projects and programmers. Each distribution includes the Linux kernel (the foundation of the operating system), the GNU shell utilities (the terminal interface and commands), the X server (for a graphical desktop), the desktop environment, a package management system, an installer and other services. Many components are developed independently from each other and are distributed in source code form. Distros also include an Internet browser, management tools and other software such as the KVM hypervisor. A single Linux distribution may contain thousands of software packages, utilities and applications.

 The Best Linux Distros for Beginners

Ubuntu

If people think of alternative operating system other than macos or windows they probably think about ubuntu. it is the most used linux distro that is because of many reasons it has one of the biggest community that is very much active .many other distro are also based on ubuntu so the command you learn as well as the working of this operating system then you can use it on othe operating system distro based on ubuntu .there are many flavor of ubuntu they all the same except the desktop environment .vanila ubuntu come with GNOME desktop environment xubuntu come with xfce desktop environment .whatever you chose it will work great if your system have low specification then choose xubuntu it is very stable .

Best looking linux distros

    Elementary os

        Elementary os is my operating system of choose because it has arguably best looking and polished user interface compare to any other linux distros it used its own environment called pantheon it does require some decent specification for the machine but it is very smooth and very enjoyable to use and also it is based on LTS version of ubuntu and so it is very easy to learn and use it as daily driver

Click here to see the official elementary os website

Best distro for gaming 

    Pop os       

Pop os is the best operating system for gaming among all the available linux distro.because it come with all the necessary drivers for the system as well as dedicated drivers for nivida graphic card and all the drivers and components are up to date.this used modified GNOME desktop environment called cosmos .pop os is based on ubuntu this runs on most devices without any problem but if you focus on gaming then the requirement s may vary.

Best distro for pen testing (HACKING)

    Kali linux

If you heard of hacking then you probably heard of kali linux it is the tools for cybersecurity it comes with many hacking ,pentesting tools pre installed in the operating system.the kali linux is often live boot in a pen drive but it can also be installed normally but i don’t recommend it for daily driving the focus of this operating system is for security research and testing and not for the daily usage .it is also based on debian.it used xfce desktop environment ,this operating system need light system specification to run.

So here are something that you should definitely try out with your jailbroken device 

Now you can install application and tweaks from third party developers 

Here is the link to the jailbreaking community on reddit

This blog will show you first thing should be done after you jailbroke your device

update your existing packages ;

The first thing you should do is to update your package from your package manager

This will provide the best experience

HOW TO ADD REPO TO THE PACKAGE MANAGER

Repo are like addition source to the package manager,package manager comes with some default repo but in ored to get apps and extension from other the developer of these apps and tweaks may have there own repo or save it in another repo for their convenience

Step 1:open cydia on the bottom click on the  source tab

Step 2:In the source tab press the edit button

Step 3:And press the add button

Step 4:Then enter the repo link in the field and press ok add source(cydia will go into command line like interface it will load then click return to cydia once the process is completed)

This this are not in particular order

1.Install newer package manager  :

Most jailbreak exploit come with cydia as its default package manager but to be honest cydia feels     very much outdated look wise as well as it functional wise it lacks many thing compare to modern package managers available for the device

My recommendation is Installer 5 this is a modern manager for jailbroken devices

Available from apptapp repo(https://apptapp.me/repo/)

2.install appsync unified 

AppSync Unified is a tweak that allows users to freely install altered, fakesigned, or unsigned IPA app packages on their iOS devices that iOS may otherwise consider invalid app packages

Some popular use cases include:

• Installing freely-distributed applications that are not available from the apple App Store without having to re-sign the app every 7 days (if the user does not have a subscribe to the Apple Developer Program)
• Assisting in the development of iOS applications with Xcode
• Cloning or downgrading already-installed apps

By using it you can easily install apps without needing to re-sign using methods like altstore etc..

If you don’t want to jailbreak your device just to sideload check out how to side load without jailbreking your device

Repo: https://cydia.akemi.ai/

3.installing custom themes :

This is a very personal and fun aspect of the jailbroken device people often jailbreak there device so that they can change the boring iphone user interface

There is an easy way to theme the entire device by installing snowboard

Snowboard:

Snowboard is a theme engine for jailbroken devices that can change the entire feel and aesthetics of your device completely to unlock its full potential. You need to install its extension so that you can change different parts of the device, for example the icon extension used to change the icons ,dock,menu bar extension . if you only want to change icon then install only the icons extensions

Themes and icons packs are available from the packet manager under themes section

My favorite repo for fonts and themes (https://evynw.github.io/)

4.Installing filza

Filza is one of the essential tools for the jailbroken device,filza is a powerful file manager for the iphone it allow access to the root file of your device     which is not available for non jailbroken devices it also includes unzipping,copy,paste file creation etc…

Filza is a paid software but don’t worry there is no need to pay for it to use the full functionality of the software

Filza is is available from the repo :Bigboss repo

5.insatall icleaner :

Icleaner is a cleaning utility for ios device which scan the entire root system and find duplicate, unused dependency ,remaining ota update and remove them it give lot of storage of the iphone with we really need

These are some of the things you must do when you first do. We will see tweaks and apps you must have as well as tips and tricks for your jailbroken device  soon in our blog posts .

The post THINGS TO DO AFTER YOU JAILBROKEN YOUR DEVICE appeared first on Mp3 Store.

    Shuffle is a jailbreak tweak that revamp the look of the Settings app allowing users  to better organize apps and installed tweaks through their packet manager. shuffle works with all modern jailbreaks running iOS 10 – iOS 14.

Once you install the Shuffle it  adds new sections in the top of the settings apps with Tweaks, Apps, and System Apps. which allows users  to quickly manage all tweaks, preferences without need to scroll down. Everything is organized the way you would expect from the beginning.

When you have installed a lot of tweaks you will be able  to know that each section comes with a search bar that allows users to find tweaks and preferences. This works also with installed Apps.

But wait, there is more to this Shuffle tweak that doesn’t only organize the tweak list in sections. It can also manage tweaks Preference Bundles allowing users to disable the settings pane for selected tweaks. This option is available in the Advanced tab which is available at the  bottom of the Tweaks Section.

2. SYLPH

    Sylph tweak was developed by the developer Max Dausch ,Sylph tweak is used to customize the ugly lock screen music player it has three different style lock to it users can choose the look from the tweak preference setting that can be accessed via the settings app

It can be further customized by the next tweak in this list that is custom player

3. CUSTOMMISICPLAYER

    This tweak allows user to customize the lock screen music player the features of thus tweak are as follows

CustomPlayer is a tweak to customize your music experience!

Current features:

• colorizing the music player on the lockscreen/notification center.

• colorizing the now playing view in the Spotify app.
• colorizing the music module in the control center.

4. KALM

    The recent ios update added the ability to customize the lock screen however if you ran older version of ios and still need something similar to it then it is the best option

The iOS Lock screen has rarely received subtle design changes over the years, but they haven’t been quite as outdated as some users would like to see. users like to see more of my most important information directly on my Lock screen every day without having to swipe anywhere.

If you’re wanting something like this, then I think you’ll enjoy a newly released jailbreak tweak called Kalm by iOS developer ubik. Kalm brings a gorgeous information-oriented info to your iOS device’s Lock screen, allowing you to see more of what’s happening  at a glance with less interaction on your part.

Kalm integrates useful information types into the iOS Lock screen, that includes current Weather conditions and Up Next Calendar events in addition to a gorgeous new date and time display that can be customized by the user.

Once installed, users can change the  preference setting of kalm in the Settings app where they can configure the Kalm interface to their liking

5. CALLBARXS

    If you have a jailbroken iPhone, then you should definitely get  Elias Limneos’ new CallBar XS tweak to your device

Just like its older brother , CallBar XS old iphone interface by incorporating a less intrusive incoming and outgoing phone call interface. In other words, it replaces iOS’ full-screen call interface with one that is normally larger than a standard notification banner, and also it does not sacrifice any functionality.

On the other side,, CallBar XS also includes a many pre themes in the tweak that you can change it from the setting app

What’s more, CallBar XS supports more than just the native phone app; it  supports popular apps like whatsapp facetime etc…

Apple in WWDC 2022 previewed the latest version of the IOS,that is iOS 16 it introduces redesigned, customizable Lock Screens, the ability to edit and delete messages, improved Focus modes, an iCloud Shared Photos Library for families, major improvements for apps like Mail, Home, and Wallet, and much more.

Also improved focus mode as well as many collaborative  focused changes the feature changes are also included in the ipados 

1.LOCK SCREEN

    In iOS 16, finally users can customize their Lock Screens to their desired look and can easily switch between multiple of them by simply holding down and swiping the screen.

Users can now choose a new effect for wallpapers like the subject can be  set in front of the time and change the font of the date and type with a range of new styles and color options. A brand new  gallery displays suggestions to create custom Lock Screens,with live weather conditions, animated views of the Earth, moon, and solar system, emojis, unique backdrops, image suggestions, and many more.

It can have complication like apple watch and add widget to the lock screen

2.NOTIFICATION

    Notifications is now completely  redesigned in iOS 16 now it  rolls up from the bottom of the screen instead of the traditional way ,it is to  ensure that users have a good view of their customized  Lock Screen while being able to easily see notifications as they arrive. There are many ways to view notifications on the Lock Screen like expanded list view, count view ,stacked view, and a pinch allows users to change the layout in context.

3.Live Activities

    Live Activities is a new feature in ios 16  that helps users keep track of things that are happening in real-time, such as a sports game, workout, ride-share, or food delivery order, directly from the Lock Screen. Instead of a new notification for every update it updates in real time it takes the form of a card at the bottom of the Lock Screen that persists for as long as the activity occurs.

3.IMPROVED FOCUS MODE 

    Focus mode was first  introduced with iOS 15 last year and now it has been expanded and refined in iOS 16, iPadOS 16, watchOS 9, and macOS Ventura. Accompanying the redesigned customizable Lock Screen now the users can now set each Focus mode to have a linked Lock Screen. In addition to all of the existing ways to activate a Focus mode, like in Control Center or via automations, iPhone users can now choose between Lock Screens to enable a different set  Focus mode.

iOS 16 suggests Home Screen and Lock Screen set up  with apps, wallpapers, and widgets when users set up a Focus mode, and users can also directly tie an Apple Watch face to a specific Focus mode. The process of setting up a Focus mode has been improved  with a personalized setup experience for each option.

One of the biggest additions to Focus mode  in iOS 16 is Focus filters. Focus filters allow users to set limits  within apps like Mail,calendar  ,safari, and messages to only display relevant content, such as a particular Tab Group in Safari,or set of calendars  events in the Calendar app, With a new Focus filter API, developers can build this functionality into their apps and change content based on a user’s current Focus.

There are also more customizable  options inside Focus modes, with an ability to silence notifications from apps and people, effectively adding the ability to not include notifications rather than only allow them as is the case in iOS 15.

These are some of the features of ios 16 we will see addition improvement in the next article

So in PART-1 of basic linux command we see command linux command. In this post, we will continue to learn some other basic commands of linux in this post.

Check out the PART-1 OF BASIC LINUX COMMAND FOR ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS

WHAT IS LINUX ?

    Linux is a open source operating system that runs linux kernel there are lot of distribution of linux, linux is highly customizable os unlike windows for macos they are very restricted compare to the linux os,os linux can run on wide variety of hardware from smartwatch to supercomputer and they are well know for it stability and reliability 

to learn little bit more about linux click here

this article will show additional and useful basic linux commands

1.locate

    You can use this command to find a file, just like the windows search in Windows.in addition to that, using the -i argument along with this command will make it case-insensitive, so you can search for a file even if you don’t know its exact name.

To search for a file that having more than two words, use an asterisk *. For ex, locate -i scnotes* note command will search for any file that contains the word “scnote” and “scnote”, even if it is in uppercase or lowercase.

2.find

    It is similar to the locate command, using find it also  searches for files and directories. The difference between locate and find commands is that, you use the find command to find the files within a specific directory.

As an example, find /home/ -name scnotes.txt command will search for a file called scnotes.txt within the home directory and its subdirectories.

3.grep

This is another basic Linux command that is very helpful for everyday use .It lets you search through all the text in a given file.

For example if you type “grep pink colors.txt” it will search for the word pink in the colors file. Lines that contain the word will be shown fully.

4.df

    df command is used to get a report on the system’s disk space usage, shown in percentage and KBs. If you want to see the disk space usage report in megabytes, type df -m.

5.du

    If you want to check the size of a file or a directory, the du (Disk Usage) command is used for that purpose.However, the disk usage summary will show disk- block numbers instead of the usual size format. If you want it to show it in bytes, kilobytes, and megabytes, add the -h argument to the command.

6.tar

    The tar command is one of the most used commands to archive multiple files into a tarball file ,a common Linux file format that is like zip format in other operating systems, with compression being optional.

This command has a long list of functions such as adding new files into an existing tarball file, listing the total  content of an archive, extracting the content from a file, and many more.

7.chmod

    chmod is another Linux command, used to change the write,read and execute permissions of files and directories.

8.ping

    Ping command is used to check the connecting status of the server that is still alive and does it give response back or not

9.history

     History command is used to show the previously typed command in the terminal 

10.echo

    This command is used to copy some data into a file. For eg, if you want to add the text, “hello world” into a file called nameless.txt, you would type echo hello world >> nameless.txt

    Linux is a family of open source operating system running linux kernel you might not know about linux but the world is run by linux ,all the server are exclusively runs linux operating system because linux is known for its stability and relatability as well is it can run on wide range of hardware from watches to supercomputers

    Unlike windows and mac os linux is completely open source and it has a very large community of people that helps ordinary people to get using linux, and there are lot of distribution there is something for everyone in the linux 

    Unlike other os the linux doesn’t even need GUI(Graphical user interface) or mouse  to operate the entire system ,it can even operate by commands in the terminal many people are scared because of that but most linux distros come with GUI but still learning some command will improve your day to day workflow in linux

    So these are some of the command for beginners 

check out the a small introduction to linux here.

1.ls command

    ls  command is used to list all the file in the current directory you are in if you want the ls command to to show hidden files then use -a as an argument to show the all the file with hidden files in the current directory

2.cp-command 

    cp command is used to copy files through the command line interface. It takes two parameter: The first is the location of the file to be copied, the second is where to copy the file.

3.cd command

    cd-  change directory

    It is used to go to a specific directory. For example, if you are in the home folder, and you want to change it to the downloads folder, then you can type in “cd Downloads”., this command is case sensitive, and you have to type in exact name of the folder. But the changing director should be with in the current directory for example you are in downloads folder you want to open ex1 folder but it is inside 

Some other folder in the download directory then the command should be cd Download/folder/ex1 also if the folder you want to open having two name like space in between then the space should be denoted by \ for example if the name of the folder is home work then the command should be cd home\work

If you want to go back then use cd ..

5.cat command

    cat command is used to display the contents of a file. For example cat hello.txt 

The contents of the hello.txt file will be displayed

6.mv-command

    mv it is similar to cut in other operating system it is same as cp command but instead of coping its content it will move the content it have two argument the first should be the source location next should be the destination

7.mkdir-command

    mkdir command is used to create a new director for example mkdir hello it will create a new folder in the current working directory it can also use to create inside the other director for example it can create new folder inside the hello folder by using mkdir /hello/hello2

If you folder need two word then the blank space is represented by \

8.rmdir-command

    rmdir  is exactly opposite to mkdir command; it is use to delete the directory but it can only delete empty directory to delete the contents of the file rm command is used for that purpose.

9.rm command

 rm command is used to delete files and directories.  Use “rm -r” to delete just the directory. Defaut It deletes both the folder and the files contained within the directory.

10.touch-command
