### Q1 : Can I install any other linux based distro instead of Ubuntu 16.04 ?
|
|
|
**Ans** : No, because we have encountered and solved most challenges around Ubuntu 16.04.
|
|
|
Newer OSes have package incompatibility issues which we dont want to waste time solving.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Q2 : I am having X problem while installing Ubuntu ... what should I do ?
|
|
|

|
|
|
Then and only then post it in [Issue](https://gitlab.iotiot.in/newbies/orientation/issues/1)
|

### Q3 : I have installed Ubuntu 16.04 on VM but it is very slow... what should I do ?
|
|
|
**Ans** : This maybe due to low number of Cores, low RAM or low Storage. We recommend
|
|
|
1. Alteast 4 cores for the VM
|
|
|
2. Atleast 4 GB of RAM
|
|
|
3. Atleast 40 GB of storage space
|
|
|
|
|
|
for a good experience with VM.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Q4 : Can I do the Skilling program on Windows? and not use Linux
|
|
|
**Ans** : The skilling program is designed with the assumption that you will have
|
|
|
Ubuntu 16.04 installed (atleast on VM) so there will be assignments that will require Ubuntu 16.04,
|
|
|
we dont recommend doing the skilling program on Windows.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Q5 : I am not getting access to the main repository to push my changes, what should I do ?
|
|
|
**Ans** :
|
|
|
1. Fork the project.
|
|
|
2. Cloned the forked project (not the original project).
|
|
|
3. Add your changes to the project.
|
|
|
4. Push to the project.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is caused when you are pushing to the original orientation project and not your forked project.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Q6 : I am having problems while `git push` (pushing) my changes to the repo... what should I do ?
|
|
|
**Ans** : Make sure you have cloned the correct repo (the one that you forked) and not the original project.
|
|
|
This is caused when you are pushing to the original orientation project and not your forked project.
