Re: [Plug] intro to Linux book ?


Thoughts? Yeah, where'd you get her & are there any more like her? Please provide blueprints source code and instructions as necessary. I'm assuming she's still in beta?

Subject: [Plug] intro to Linux book ?
Date: Wed, 22 Sep 1999 17:16:39 -0400 (EDT)


My girlfriend has uttered the words "I want to learn Linux." I feel so unbelievably lucky.

And she's got an extra computer she wants me to install it on.

She's a book person.  I want to find her an appropriate intro to Linux
type book.

I will be installing Debian.

As I've previously mentioned, I've got a strong bias towards O'Reilly (and
she apparently also has a high opinion of them).

O'Reilly has a "Learning Red Hat Linux" which I would love a Debian
version of.  There was also "Running Linux, 3rd Edition".

Thoughts ?

Oh wow.

Learning Debian GNU/Linux

Yup, O'Reilly does indeed rock :)
