 New to Linux and Want to Install Software-This is the Book to get! January 2, 2006
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Unlike the Mac and Windoze world, installing software on Linux can require typing several text commands into the terminal. Even with Ubuntu, you have to use the terminal from time to time. This book explains it all from tarballs to RPMs, and compiling. This book is for EVERYONE, not just administrators.
I purchased 4 Linux books and this one is the best. I couldn't find some basic Linux commands in the index of the "Linux Bible 2005 Edition " but they do appear in the index of this book.
I wish there were more Linux books like this one!

The authors did a good job of introducing newbies to Linux. I found it very easy to follow. The book makes Linux easy to understand. Granted there is a lot more to learn, but that is not the scope of the book.

Best newbie books I've found December 31, 2003
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
This is the book I've been looking for. It has most of the "need to know" stuff from the man pages along with easy to understand explanations. I'm working my way through it but it makes a great reference too. I've seen too many books that spend way too much time on installation and not enough on operation. This one gets right to the CLI from adding users to setting up dns and fetchmail. If you're looking for a book on xwindows, this ain't it. If you're a newbie looking to learn the command line...get this book.
