Welcome to the Linux Foundation Forum!

Could a moderator whether the observations I made are actual (minor) issues with the LFS101 course

These is a list of small issues that I found while going over the course LFS101 which I finished last Monday (26Feb16) I am confident that all of them are minor issues except for the last one "g)" where perhaps is just something that needs more clarification (to me at least).
Perhaps these remarks are worth some reward points :smile:

a) On lesson 6. "System Configuration from the Graphical" > Interface Installing and Updating Software >> Red Hat Package Manager (RPM)
I believe that it is wrong in the 2nd line of the 2nd paragraph the part that says "Red Hat family distributions historically use RHEL/CentOS, ..." when I guess "yum" was meant instead of "RHEL/CentOS"

b) On lesson 10. "Processes" > Listing Processes: ps and top >> Using top
In the video at the time 1:30 talking about the 3rd line it is mentioned "... how many are hi priority ..." but this appears incorrect with what is explained on the part "Third Line of the top Output"

c) On lesson 10. "Processes" > Knowledge Check >> Question 10.14
"Which key is used to sort the process list by top resource consumers when using top?" The "correct Answer A 'S'" at least doesn't apply to my version of top (top from procps-ng 4.0.4 on a Ubuntu machine) where S toggles cumulative time

d) On lesson 11. "File Operations" > Filesystem Layout >> The /proc Filesystem
It is mentioned "The first example ..." and "The second example ..." but there is only one picture instead of two

e) On lesson 13. "User Environment" > Environment Variables >> Lab 13.3: Changing the Command Line Prompt
On the solution points 2. and 3. the prompt appears to display the user ("student") instead of a host (I expected something like laptop, ubuntu,fedora or redhat)

f) On lesson 14. "Manipulating Text" > grep and strings >> Lab 14.3: Using grep
Missing 's' for "student" at the prompt in last solution (5.)

g) On lesson 15. "Network Operations" > Network Addresses and DNS >> Name Resolution
I was confused given that the IPv4 address is not the same as the one shown in the video example on the following slide/part of the lesson. And the result I got trying the commands in my machine was also different from those two.
