LPIC 1 exam certification notes

I’ve just started to take notes about the LPIC1 and LPIC2 certifications.

So I thought to share them to maybe help someone else. English is not my first language, so maybe you can just tell me what do you think and how to improve the structure / vocabary / markdown / everything else.

I’m about at 10% (I think) of the learning path (just finished topic 102.5), but I’ll push new topics as soon as I read and summarize them.

Thank you!

    Have you considered taking your notes on a non-corpo-social-media site that wants you to create accounts with Microsoft to interact with?

    Curious if anyone has any comparisons or comments in regards to other certifications like RHCSA/RHCE? I know Oracle also has a cert and someone else brought up CompTIA Linux+ not being great. Which ones carry more weight professionally?

      The Red Hat ones are definitely tuned to Red Hat Environments. If you‘re sure you only walk in the RedHat Ecosystem, then you should go for RHCE or RHCSA. I had a Red Hat Learning subscription once, and they never mentioned other Linux systems at all, only Red Hat. Unfortunately I never went down the Red Hat only route so my company opted for the LPI certification. The LPI certification also touch a lot of stuff that isn’t essential for every day system administration like openvpn and its various parameters.

      From my personal experience, I know more people that have LPIC 1 or 2 certification than a Red Hat one. But this could just be the German market.

        Thanks for the reply! I don’t think I’ll do anything specific to RH, so I should probably stick to LPI. Any thoughts on the Linux Foundation Certifications (LFCS)?

          Unfortunately I don’t have any information on those and since I already have LPIC 3-303 I’ll stick to those when it’s time to renew my certification

    From my own experience, LPIC 1 was a walk in the park compared to LPIC 2. The sheer amount of objectives in 2 is insane, so I would suggest you focus on LPIC 1 (101 and 102) until you have passed the certification. Your certification will be valid for five years and that it enough time to prepare for LPIC 2.

    Each disk needs at least one partition, but it can contains multiple partitions.

    The boot disk needs to contain at least one partition (because of the way booting works), for the rest they’re optional.

    Very nice ! Thank you :).

    This certification looks way more professional than the Comptia’s + certification stack, which looked more like a scam/money grab than actual certifications.

    Good luck in your study’s, keep it going, don’t give up 💪👍
