Linnaeus' system consisted of kingdom, phylum, class, order, genus and species. Before this system, nobody had formally classified, or even really worked as a taxonomist, excluding (arguably) Aristotle.

How does evolutionary classification differ from traditional classification?

Back when classification was still in its early times, people would arbitrarily choose a certain characteristic on an organism and classify them according to that. This was called artificial classification, as it just relied on external characteristics. For example, Linnaeus's famous system of classification used the sexual organs or plants to classify them, ie, whichever plants had the same looking organs were classified together. Today, the evolutionary classification is more true, in the sense that organisms are actually classified by their evolutionary relationships, and are thus actually related and similar.
