There is no dearth of Run commands provided by windows but these are very difficult to remember . Hence, in such case its very important to know how to create your own rum command.  Below are given the steps..!! Go through them !

Steps

 The very first instruction says that you will have to select a program or an application for which you wish to create your own Run command.

fter this step, next step asks you to right- click on the desktop and creating a new shortcut.

Now, a new dialogue box will make its appearance before you in which you are required to enter the path of your desired program or application for which you are taking all this effort of making a Run command.

Once you find the path of your specific program or application, then the next step is to click NEXT and enter the name to your short cut. Okay, there is one thing that you need to keep in your mind which is that the name you are providing in the shortcut is the same name that will be used as a Run command. For instance, if you name the short cut as BoD, then you will have to enter the same name or same words in the Run command in order to make the application work. The final step is- clicking the Finish button.

Having followed all these steps sincerely, copy that newly created shortcut and paste it in Windows main directory that is very often C:\Windows.

LINUX ADMINISTRATION

INTRODUCTION TO LINUX

Linux was originally developed as a free operating system for Intel x86-based personal computers. It has since been ported to more computer hardware platforms than any other operating system. It is a leading operating system on servers and other big iron systems such as mainframe computers and supercomputers.As of June 2013, more than 95% of the world's 500 fastest supercomputers run some variant of Linux, including all the 44 fastest. Linux also runs on embedded systems, which are devices whose operating system is typically built into the firmware and is highly tailored to the system; this includes mobile phones,tablet computers, network routers, facility automation controls, televisions[and video  game consoles. Android, a widely used operating system for mobile devices, is built on top of the Linux kernel.

Linux  is a Unix-like and mostly POSIX-compliant computer operating system assembled under the model of free and open-source software development and distribution. The defining component of Linux is the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on 5 October 1991 by Linus Torvalds.
The Unix operating system was conceived and implemented in 1969 at AT&T's Bell Laboratories in the United States by Ken Thompson, Dennis Ritchie, Douglas McIlroy, and Joe Ossanna. It was first released in 1971, initially written entirely in assembly language as a common practice at the time. Later, in a key pioneering approach in 1973, Unix was re-written in the programming language C by Dennis Ritchie (with exceptions to the kernel and I/O). The availability of an operating system written in a high-level language allowed easier portability to different computer platforms.

With AT&T being required to license the operating system's source code to anyone who asked (due to an earlier antitrust case forbidding them from entering the computer business), Unix grew quickly and became widely adopted by academic institutions and businesses. In 1984, AT&T divested itself of Bell Labs. Free of the legal obligation requiring free licensing, Bell Labs began selling Unix as a proprietary product.
