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.

Error Partitioning Void Linux (lemmy.ca)

Hey, For some reason(s) after I start my Void system I have 2 /Home partitions. One is /Home/Void and the second one is /Home/Moi. Now I suspect the Void one is because I kept Void as a user and the second one is because I changed the name Void User to Moi. Now for the weird part... /Home/Void uses the / allocated space while the /Home/moi uses what I put in while partitioning my drive.

Any help on this would b e much appreciated...am not that savvy with Linux so have no idea what's happening

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...
