books, yucks..... if one is in hurry,he can try this approach: "LEARN -AS -YOU-GO"
get virtualbox ,from http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads ...take your time to learn virutal box, it hardly take 30 hours even for a starter to learn it, after all no command is needed,just point and click action. ...mistered some courage and get your fav distro first... for starter ubuntu is recommended, though installation step is same for all debian base linux. first step how to install so start by googling 'how to install...' second step , how to install/update/ packages and basic linux command so again start googling the same. Every distro comes with a proper documentation so, do stop to go through it first. If you really need to read book ,then read book on 'operating system design and implementation: by tannenbaum' or 'operating system principle: by peter baer galvin' to get more detailed and theoretical conceptual knowledge, which otherwise would be difficult to gain. And last but not the least, ....The Linux philosophy is 'Laugh in the face of danger'. Oops. Wrong One. 'Do it yourself'. Yes, that's it. when i tried as such, i learn thing fast and got more practical knowledge which otherwise i wouldn't had i tried starting with a book.But sometime i end with no OS booting on my computer. specially when once tried to install 'gentoo' linux. But thanks to virutalbox you'll never face such condition. regards Sahil http://twitter.com/sonusahil http://www.commgod.co.cc ....The Linux philosophy is 'Laugh in the face of danger'. Oops.
