Bash Shell users can use the following syntax to switch to the Magento file system owner and enter the commands simultaneously.
su <Magento file system owner> -s /bin/bash -c <command>
Use the following command if you don’t have the Magento file system owner logins::
sudo -u <Magento file system owner> <command>
To run Magento commands from any directory, add <magento_root>/bin to your system PATH.
Step 2: Helpful Magento Commands
Get the complete list of commands, enter the following command:
bin/magento list
Get the help for particular commands, enter the following command:
bin/magento help <command>
Step 3: Install the Magento Software from the Command Line
The install command uses the following format:
magento setup:install --<option>=<value> ... --<option>=<value>

Verify the storefront
Open your browser and go to the storefront. Enter your Magento store URL.

If this page loads up, it means the Magento installation is successful. This is a sample storefront page with no data.
Verify the Magento Admin
Open the Magento Admin in any web browser.
For example, let’s say your Magento store base URL is: http://www.example.com
And your Admin URL is: admin_ServerGuy
Put in the browser: http://www.example.com/admin_ServerGuy
You can change, or assign the Admin URL from the backend-frontname installation parameter.
A box will open up that will ask your login information. Enter your username and password, and your dashboard will come up.
