Title: Newbie needs help!
Post by: rubix41 on 6 December 2002, 10:15

Not everyone is great at Linux/Unix/Alt-OS and I am sure some of you were not the Linux/Unix/Alt-OS experts once!

As a newbie to Linux, I would like to know how to get started! Anyone know any good links on the web that they used or a book or something they would reccommend?

Answers would be so appreciated!

Try these:


Linux Newbie (http://www.linuxnewbie.org)

DOS Win to Linux (http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/DOS-Win-to-Linux-HOWTO.html) Good guide to the Linux command line.

Mandrake Documentation (http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/fdoc.php3) Lots of good documentation, even if you don't intend to install Mandrake, there's still lots of good info that applies to other distros as well. Very well written, and free.
