Try Linux In A Nutshell (http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/linuxnut/noframes.html). It's great material. This page has other resources too. Lastly, The Linux Documentation Project (http://www.tldp.org/) has extensive materials on how you can get started. Lots of luck :)

I have RH 7.1 Unleashed, it should be nearly identical to RH 7.2 Unleashed.

Is RH 7.1 or 7.2 unleashed available for online reading anywhere?

Here's an updated link for "Linux in a Nutshell". The link provided was for the 1st edition... they are currently on their 3rd.

this isnt a good book if you are a newbie.
i am a newbie.
i have this book.
it says right on the book= userlevel:intemediate-advanced
but you get the distro that is the bonus.
http://tldp.org
lots of good reading there and free. go on kazaa and do a search....for text documents you will find tons of books .pdf format to keep you busy reading for the next couple of years.

i have rh 7.2 unleashed and yeah like aphex twin said it isnt for the newbie..the main reason i got it was it came with the distro ..however for reasons unknown it wont load on my computer..it starts up and freezes. this might be from my incompetence (very likely) or something else.. im not sure..if anyone has any ideas i will gladly listen

yo destined: i had the same prob w/ that distro i reinstalled it a couple of times b4 i got it to work, the time i got it to work was when you come to the step where it asks to select software packake groups for instalation i unchecked everything but gnome (no games,software development etc. etc.) and everything went smoothly you will have to go back and install everything later.
hope it helps bud

i couldnt even get it to go that far... it starts on the page where it asks what mode i want to install in. then if i select graphic mode, it will look like it is loading ..and the screen goes black.it does the same with text, mode, low res... and another that i tried ....
but that is comforting to know its not just me thatt had problems with the cd... :D
