Check swappines (the eager the system will swap with). A higher number means more swapping will happen. 0 is not no swapping but minimal swapping.
uname -a
Show kernel version
mountpoint -q <directory>
Check if <directory> is in use as mountpoint
chage -l <username>
Show password aging status
PS1="[\u@\h \W]\$ "
Set shell prompt to '[username@hostname <curdir>]$ '
\w for whole current path
