The first in a new series exploring the basics of Raspberry Pi Operating System (OS) administration, this volume is a compendium of easy-to-use and essential system administration for the novice user of the Raspberry Pi OS.The overriding idea behind the system administration of a modern, 21st-century Linux system such as the Raspberry Pi OS is the use of systemd to ensure that the Linux kernel works efficiently and effectively to provide the three foundation stones of computer operation and management: computer system concurrency, virtualization, and secure persistence. Exercises are included throughout to reinforce the readers’ learning goals with solutions and example code provided on the accompanying GitHub site.This book is aimed at students and practitioners looking to maximize their use of the Raspberry Pi OS. With plenty of practical examples, projects, and exercises, this volume can also be adopted in a more formal learning environment to supplement and extend the basic knowledge of a Linux operating system.

This book covers Raspberry Pi 5 OS concepts and commands that allow a beginner to perform essential system administration and other operations. This is a mandatory set of commands that even an ordinary, non-adminstrative user would need to know to work efficiently in a character, text-based interface (CUI), or in a graphical interface (GUI) to the operating system. Each chapter contains sequential, inline exercises that reinforce the material that comes before them.The first introductory chapter illustrates a basic set of text-based commands which are the predominant means that a system administrator uses to maintain the integrity of the system. User account control is an example of the fundamental integrity aspect of administration, requiring the addition of users and groups while maintaining secure access. Storage solutions involve integrating persistent media such as USB3 SSDs and NVMe drives, ensuring proper file system classification based on physical or virtual media, including NFSv4 and iSCSI setups.In the second chapter, which is the core of the book, we cover many critical and pertinent system administration commands and facilities. For example, how to attach additional media to the Raspberry Pi 5, and how to install and boot the Raspberry Pi 5 from an NVMe SSD, rather than from the traditional microSD card medium. We also cover many advanced topics here in this chapter to expand upon the beginners knowledge of system maintenance and control.In the third chapter, we show how system administration is streamlined with systemd, which allows efficient service management. The systemd "superkernel" is a powerful initialization and service management framework that has revolutionized Linux system administration. It introduces a structured approach to system control through sub-commands and applications, enhancing system efficiency. At its core, systemd units and unit files serve as essential building blocks, defining system behavior.
