Dear experts
Could you give me a little help answering the add below ??? (It can interest others newbies)
Linux home-user (not IT professional but above "dummy in computer" level), myself, that recently installed Mandrake 8.2 (2 cd�s pack), with no time for formal course, with some initial difficulty, looks for:
an excellent book (just one) of Linux with home-user approach, in style: step-by-step / self-study,based on Redhat or Mandrake preferably (if it is important), updated version, covering the basic topics from: linux installation, soft installation/upgrade; use of utilities (backup, anti-virus, firewall), hard/drivers upgrade....until setting home network (at most), for learn and reference use.
Thanks a lot in an advance
