"Running Linux" by Welsh and Kauffman, published by O'Reilly. I bought
a copy at the weekend and it's very good so far and seems to be suitable
for beginners and near-experts. I also have "Teach Yourself Linux in
24-Hours" published by Sams. Its quite basic but covers a very wide
range of issues. It comes with RH5 and is based on installing and using
that distribution.
