Dell OS Recovery Tool under Linux Mini-HOWTO

Dell OS Recovery Tool Under Linux Mini-HOWTO

Since I was unable to find a specific answer to how can one create a Dell recovery disk from within Linux, I decided to write the steps here.

If you write the CD image directly to the USB drive (or create a new partition and write it there), the laptop will not boot. You need your USB media to be in FAT32 format with the contents of the recovery ISO.

  1. Download the recovery ISO from the support section of Dell website.
  2. Insert a USB Drive with enough capacity to hold the contents of the ISO image.
  3. Format the drive and create a filesystem where $USB_DEVICE is your USB drive (check with fdisk -l, it may be

AWS & GCP explained in simple English

Amazon Web Services (AWS) & Google Cloud Platform (GCP) explained in simple English

This guide is only representative from my point of view and it may not be accurate and you should go on the official AWS & GCP websites for accurate and detailed information. It's initially inspired by AWS in simple English and GCP for AWS professionals. The idea is to compare both services, give simple one-line explanation and examples with other software that might have similiar capabilities. Comment below for suggestions.

Category Service AWS GCP Description It's like
Compute IaaS Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) Google Compute Engine Type-1 virtual servers VMware ESXi, Citrix XenServer
  PaaS AWS Elastic Beanstalk Google App Engine Running your app on a platform

lonetwin / Git dot files management
Last active April 29, 2025 08:27
A simple way to manage dotfiles with git without silly symlinks and special tools. Just use negative matches in your .gitignore !
I like to manage dotfiles without having to mess with silly symlinks or having
to install/configure specific dotfile managament tools. So here's what I did:
$ cd ~
$ git init .
$ echo '*' > .gitignore # ignore all files by default
$ echo '!.bashrc' >> .gitignore # ...and then tell git what files not to *not* ignore
$ # ...add other files you may want to track to *not* ignore
$ git add .bashrc # now actually add the files to git
$ git add .gitignore # add the .gitignore to git
