Hi all:
I'm pretty new to Linux and still trying to figure out the ropes, apologies for a simple question. But.... Are there equivalent commands in linux for the DOS dir and chkdsk commands? In particular, I'd like to determine how much space is left/occupied on a particular drive.

DOS dir is "ls" with its various switches. Do a "man ls" for details.
To find out disk free space, type "df". Will give you space used and free on all mounted filesystems.
