Rutgers University Linux Server Project

 

I’m working on a linux question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

  1. Scenario: You are working on a web design team, and the site you are building will be hosted on a Linux server. The team is in a design phase where they need a few pieces of placeholder content – images of various sizes that they can use to test their web page layouts before they create the real images. You’re a big Bill Murray fan, mostly because of his earlier work like Caddyshack, but you respect his later, quirkier roles in movies like The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou and Coffee and Cigarettes. Anyway. Your task is to grab and organize a few large and a few small placeholder images from the website fillmurray.com using only the Linux command-line (and your web browser, for research and testing purposes.)
    1. Create a directory for your project called placeholders
    2. Get 3 small and 3 large images.
    3. Rename them so that the names are informative, i.e., the file names and extensions make sense just from reading the directory contents.
    4. Organize the two sizes into two separate sub-directories of placeholders.
    5. From the placeholders directory, use ls -lR to display the contents of the directory and the contents of its subdirectories.
    6. Submit a screenshot of your terminal showing the output of the ls -lR command.
