I'm not trying to hijack the thread but instead of allowing discussion on the article Ram posted to die down, I thought let's use the opportunity to create a thread of useful information and links we know which can be put on the redesigned ubuntu-in site. That might make a small dent in the lack of content problem for the website. :) So here goes: I was recently reading up on Linux for an assistant system administration position and these[1][2][3][4][5] were very useful to me. Others I bookmarked but didn't have time to read.[6][7] [1] Linux Boot Process -> http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-linuxboot/?ca=dgr-lnxw16LinuxBoot [2] Linux Professional Institute Certification self-study material, please follow the links within the link http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/tutorials/l-lpic1101/index.html [3] Newer but incomplete versions of the above http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-lpic1-v3-map/ [4] Unix Tips and Tricks is a 4 part series, linking to the first part, use the "More content in this series" link http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/aix/tutorials/au-unixtips1/index.html [5] vi cheatsheet tutorial http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/tutorials/l-vi/index.html [6] Living with emacs http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/tutorials/l-emacs/index.html [7] Hardening the Linux desktop http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/tutorials/l-harden-desktop/index.html Sorry for the long mail. Anyone else planning to contribute please also provide some kind of description for the links/articles and categorization in Beginner, Introductory, Advanced. The links I posted above are already categorized by IBM on the said pages. Regards, Easwar -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
