Actually the best way for you to find out just what you need to know is
for you to actually attempt to install Linux on a machine and get it
running. I'm sure you will soon see the areas of your present knowledge
that apply and what areas you are lacking in.
In answer to your second question, no, you really don't need any previous
programming knowledge to be a Linux Admin, but knowing PERL, C++, some
Java, Javascript, Tcl, Python just to name a few never really hurts and
can only enhance the experience.
