What "Proprietary" (non-GNU) Linux Commands - Only Used In A Single Linux Distro - Are Often Used For

"Proprietary" (non-GNU) Linux commands can exist in many Linux distros for lots of different Linux system administration tasks - and many are commonly used to do tasks like:

install Linux on a computer system

- many Linux distros have their own "proprietary" commands for installing Linux

modify disk settings, such as disk partition settings

- which can be done more easily with a GNU Linux command, like fdisk

modify some hardware settings of a system, such as set the screen resolution

- which can usually be more easily done using a Linux GUI utility from the Linux desktop

When How to Use "Proprietary" (non-GNU) Linux Commands

Only learn how to use "proprietary" (non-GNU) Linux commands

when absolutely necessary - as time spent learning these commands can only be applied to a single specific Linux distribution - that you may not be using in a year from now.

Don't waste your time learning "proprietary" Linux commands (that only work in one Linux distro) unless you absolutely have to. And the same goes for learning proprietary Linux GUI utilities - almost all of which are specific to a single Linux distro.

Why learn how to use proprietary Linux commands that only work with a Linux distro you may never use again?

And why learn how to use slow, cumbersome "proprietary" Linux GUI utilities you may never use again?

The GNU (Linux) Commands are Common to All Linux Distributions

As mentioned above the GNU (Linux) Commands are common to ALL Linux distributions. This is why learning how to use Linux commands is so valuable.
