A while back I recall a thread about a study group, is that happening? I got the OK to book the RHCE class in mid September, and have work pay. I would like to get a start on the studying, some of the *ix skills are fairly rusty.
For what it's worth, the study guides that are available outside the normal classes seem to lack accuracy in some areas. I'm working on the one by Michael Jang now and finding the instructions on rebuilding the kernel to be inaccurate in several respects. The Paper Tiger types would probably freeze up and not go any further. While the book may give one an idea of what to focus on for the RHCE exam, I find myself frequently going to more authoritative sources for individual components.
I'm doing this on my own dime so it is definitely in my best interests to pass on the first try.
The most valuable thing I've been able to do is take the fastest PC I have and dedicate it to RHCE studies. This means be ready to reformat and reinstall as many as six or seven times in one day, invite people to break it in ways that you can rescue it, etc. While the NDA prevents any RHCE from telling you what to do, I've gotten the wink and nod from enough people that this approach is critical to preparation for the practical part of the exam.
