# Study the Linux commands and their purpose to note computer software information for your installed centos1 VM. You should take time to issue each of these commands to view the output, and record this chart in your lab1 logbook.
# Make certain to record output from these commands (except for the '''ps -ef''' output) in your lab1 logbook.
