Text used in examples that is meant to be replaced with data provided by the user
is displayed in this style. In the following example,
<
version-number

is dis-
played in this style:
The directory for the kernel source is
/usr/src/kernels/
<
version-number

/
,
where
<
version-number

is the version and type of kernel installed on this
system.
Additionally, we use several different strategies to draw your attention to certain pieces of
information. In order of urgency, these items are marked as a note, tip, important, caution,
or warning. For example:
Note
Remember that Linux is case sensitive. In other words, a rose is not a ROSE is not a
rOsE.
Tip
The directory
/usr/share/doc/
contains additional documentation for packages installed
on your system.
Important
If you modify the DHCP configuration file, the changes do not take effect until you restart
the DHCP daemon.
Caution
Do not perform routine tasks as root — use a regular user account unless you need to
use the root account for system administration tasks.
