I looked high and low for a Mandrake-specific book. The only one I could
find was "the Definitive Manual....". I got it and it appears to be very
comprehensive - but I have only looked at parts of it - not had it long
enough to give an overall impression - but at least for my needs it is the
only book in town.

You might want to check out one of the various linux command references. I
have one that is cross-referenced to MS-DOS commands - useful if you know
MS-DOS. However it is not a clearly laid out as one would hope, and as
always the case, there are commands that I hear/read about that are not
listed. Don't know if those are distribution-specific or not.
