Have you tried Gentoo HandBook? Gentoo Forums are one of the most active Linux forums and its IRC channel has never disappointed any one.

Though official paid support isn't there, but community support is great. But he said that he has just copy-pasted that part(which is not hard to find out reading the second guide)

I agree that there are thousands of distros freely available to use and which one is best depends on personal likes/dislikes only. I don't want to be sound rude but there is a difference between facts and opinions.

You have written or copy/pasted in thread to help new users. You should give correct info only. You know, as newbie, I had a lot of trouble during installation of my first Linux distro. Later, I came to know that the website/tutorials I was using were pretty old/outdated and full of misconceptions. That made my Linux journey a bit bumpy in starting.

You still would like to persist that all of the above are not from various other sources, and are works of your own? :\

 

[piyushp_20]

@QwertyManiac buddy, i have answered to similar question before also, (see reply #15)... i am not saying i have created all the commands and developed linux... m just summing up whatever i know about it...

NOTE:- please make sure that linux is case sensitive, even spaces matter.

Are you sure you meant that? Seems you are telling how to develop an OS.

Ls –a - View a listing of all files, including hidden files.
Ls –aR - View a listing of files, including hidden files, and including files in all subdirectories (recursive)..

Linux is case sensitive and no Ls command is there.
