Hi Robert,

I sympathize with you problems with linux.  I have tried several times to
make the jump to that OS, but, so far, I have found virtually nothing in the
way of documentation to help a DOS lover like me make the transition.  It
seems that most of the literature assumes that you are already a seasoned
Unix system administrator!  If someone out there knows of a book or even a
howto that can help a DOS person 'convert' to linux, I'd sure be grateful.
