CT320 HW0: Piracy
The purpose of this assignment is to make sure that you can login
to a Linux system and use the checkin
program.
This way, you’re sure that your login and password work
before you need them for homework #1.
This assignment is not optional.
                
Debugging
If you encounter “STACK FRAME LINK OVERFLOW”, then try this:
export STACK_FRAME_LINK_OVERRIDE=ffff-ad921d60486366258809553a3db49a4a
- Create a file called
pirate.txt
that contains only a single line.
It will contain a
good/fearsome/stupid/silly/ludicrous
name for a pirate
system administrator. For example, “The Dread Jack, Destroyer of Backups”.
- The file must be a plain text file.
If it is not, you will lose 90% of the credit.
- Use the web Checkin, or follow the directions in the
Linux checkin page to turn it in (like this):
~ct320/bin/checkin HW0 pirate.txt
- Read everything that the
checkin
command says.
