Ok fellow Minty Men/Women, here is a shameless plug for my website which I have just transfered to a paid host as it was getting too many hits when on my home server. Its a repository for free Linux E-books that I have accumulated over the years. Enjoy.

:D

Hello 900i,
This is great! A whole library of free Linux books! Good work, and thanks for sharing the stuff with all of us in the forum.

Hello 900i,
I have added a link to your site (http://www.900i.me.uk ) in the Wikimint but it can't be accessed. It says:
FORBIDDEN, You have no permission to access cgi.bin....

Looks like the site has been removed.

Thanks. We're not going anywhere or anythign like that. My kids are on spring break from school and I'll just be helping keep my wife sane - lol.

I have a few things to do around the house and we might do a day trip or 2 but nothing all that exciting.

Afraid it's no longer on line as there were issues with copyright, Basically some of the ebooks plainly stated that they could not be redistributed without written permission from the Authors, so I was in the process of removing them. Others had no copyright notice at all (probably removed before I got hold of them) so there was no way of knowing what the copyright terms involved, and the ones that were left are freely available on the web. Anyway my host decided to shut my site as it was in breach of the T&C. Have since re-acquired some more hosting but as yet have not decided what to do with it. Incidentally it was a very popular site, getting quite a few hits, but like I say not totally watertight from the legal stand point. :oops:

Thank you for your quick answer 900i,
I guessed that something like that happened to your site. I myself have a few books that my son downloaded sometime ago, like Linux for Dummies and more. I don't know if they are copyrighted though.

It would be a great service to the community if you could make another list of free books only.
I have saved your long list of books somewhere in my many hard discs and I hope that I will be able to find it. :)

Thanks.
