From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Honestly, just read the course topics and brush up on anything you might be shaky on.
The 101-104 topics listed on the website seem pretty basic. That mixed with the exam being multiple choice/fill in the blank should mean you're poised to succeed given your 20 years of user experience.
For anything else, just use youtube or search some of the community posts as a learning resource.
UPDATE: The LPI website has free PDFs of the course materials....
Please do not give advice based on vibes.
Please don't show up late to dog on an already resolved issue just to use your latest favorite buzzword.
I don't understand why you'd make that comment. Are you angry that I called you out on not having enough experience with the exam to help with preparation for it? I am sorry if that is the case.
I thought about giving similar advice to yours, but then I remembered I only have an RHCSE and that I have no clue about LPIC-1 exams, so I refrained from talking about it. The other advice about LPIC study guides was probably better, I thought.
"Showing up late" 21 hours after a post is made is... A wild take aswell. Are you OK?
I don't have experience with LPIC specifically but given how most industry cert exams ask things that are seldom encountered in "the real world" and often want a specific type of answer even in cases where other solutions would work, I would not take this advice.
Thanks, I know about about the PDFs which is why I was asking about videos specifically as I think I study better with videos.
The problem is - as has been stated in this thread - that real world knowledge is only a part of these tests; even as someone whose a SysAdmin might have to study for those tests and „brushing up“ might not be enough.
Thanks again :)
