Other than emacs, the only available command on that Linux system is mount. Not even a shell.

  Then how are the commands in the code listings executed?
  • samus 4y ago
    Emacs' `dired` mode might or might not be able to produce a directory listing by itself. However, the author admits that > Of course, quite a number of syscalls are missing from emacs (not available as elisp primitives), so as it is, it would be hard enough to do EVERYTHING with emacs, but this is a starting point.
  • ertian 4y ago
    eshell (emacs' shell) has it's own versions of common shell commands, written in elisp.
    • bigdict 4y ago
      eshell only makes an appearance in step 5, the rest are regular sh/bash commands.
      • pama 4y ago
        The commands before that step are used to build the Linux system.

          Oh I see, thanks.
