I am a newbie to Linux. May I ask if I can practice Linux in Bash on Ubuntu on Windows? Sorry for asking such a stupid question. But please help!
Thanks!
If you are using windows 10, there is now a bash shell built in that can be easily set up. Check out this tutorial to do so.
If you are not on windows 10, I would recommend Cygwin (download) as an alternate program to run bash scripts
I think you will manage to get some familiarity with working with a linux console and some of the commands, however there is certain functionality which doesn't quite work.
What I would suggest though is dual booting Linux next to Windows, to immerse yourself properly and get a clear picture of things from the start.

I was just about to try sshing for the first time and before I get into it, I want to know what's the best way to go about it. In particular, I'm currently running Linux through crouton on an HP chromebook and I want to ssh into and old windows 7 pc. Ideally I would love to have some sort of bash shell inside the windows ssh as I'm not so confident with cmd but I can make do. Are there any packages/apps that I should install on my old pc before I start trying. Preferably if there was something like WSL but for windows 7 that'd be great but I can't seem to find anything like it.
there is no ssh daemon (service) for windows from Microsoft.
So installing shell on windows, it is only about run it locally.
To connect with ssh on remote windows, you should install 3rd party ssh server on windows.

Currently, I am learning to use "BASH" and I don't know how to download it on my pc.
So it would be appreciated if someone lets me know how to download it on WINDOWS 8.1.
You have basically two choices.
Install Git for Windows. Git comes with its own bash.
Install the Windows Ubuntu sub system.
I prefer the Git bash approach because this also knows other Windows installed applications. The Ubuntu sub system acts more separated.
Have fun.

I am planning to compile and run code in a linux environment. Before moving to a linux environment I want to try it out, virtual box and dual boot will take my memory. So, after updating my windows 10 anniversary updates, I was able to install bash (ubuntu) natively to my windows 10 through windows features. After installing bash when I try to run bash it's popping and closing a windows immediately. how can I solve this. I tried this with two pc, no luck. How can I solve this issue. Which registry file should I change ?
Turn your windows to developer mode, go to settings -> search for developer, then change to developer mode. Restart your pc. It should work now

I recently need to run a program Metro:
http://vcg.isti.cnr.it/downloads/downloads.htm
It is used to measure the difference between two 3d models.
However, this program has to be run in irix 6.2/6.3. But I only have a win8.1 laptop. Is there any way to run it in a shell like cygwin? Or is there any available virtual machine resource of irix platform?
Thanks!
The software you're trying to run is old enough to drive in most countries (compiled in 1998), and was compiled for an operating system that doesn't exist anymore (Irix) that ran on a CPU architecture that's no longer even used for desktop computers (MIPS-II) and was released by a company that doesn't exist anymore either (SGI).
Your chances of getting it to run are practically nil without some major retrocomputing work. Sorry.

Im trying to implement Shellshock and I need downgrade Bash to a vuln. version. I don't know how get it and there isn't much information in the Internet about it.
I'm working with Ubuntu Server 14.04.
How I can get it?
Don't downgrade the system bash. That's a terrible idea. Get the source for a vulnerable version and compile it yourself.
(Don't install it to the system though if you can avoid it, just run it from the source directory.)
