Learning Linux

Post by idiotkiwi »

I am new to Linux and having trouble finding a graduated learning Plan.

Reasonable Windows experience but as user only. Our local library is SO out of date. Have looked at many web sites for help. Can anyone point me to a source. I don't expect to become an expert.

Thanks

I suggest to read this book: Linux for Dummies. Or this one: UNIX for Dummies.

You can find it at e.g. Amazon's online shop. As someone who is training IT apprentices in our company (since 2002) I have had positive feedbacks from my apprentices so far. The book is written in a very funny way, so besides learning a lot you'll also have plenty to laugh about here and there. Keeps the motivation up :wink:
