From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Please reformat your comment using markdown syntax. I am unable to make sense of your comment. An example is below
I'd say this is a very unusual setup. Normally, you give
/homeits own partition and then create user directories in there.OTOH, nothing about this should break anything. What you can do if you're savvy enough:
findshould be the correct tool here, but I can't tell you the proper command right now/home/voidnext to (not into) that new directory. You should now havevoidandmoias the only two entries in/home/moi/etc/fstab, change the mount point for your home partition from/home/moito/home.Please, before doing this, let someone else look over this and preferably expand. I just wrote this down on my phone while on a train ride without access to a Linux machine to verify anything. Also some of these steps are not exactly beginner level.
That was dumb of me...No wonder the system made that extra dir. Am gonna redo that box and play with it. My next task is to install Openvpn so I can get PIA going because they don't have a runit version.
Thanks for your time...
