Linux Guide: The name 'Linux' properly refers to an operating system 'kernel', a single but key component of a complete operating system.
In everday use, the term 'Linux' is frequently used to refer to a complete operating system which consists of the kernel and some of the thousands of other programs required to make an operating system useful. Much of the important system software that is typically installed on a Linux system comes from The GNU Project, a project to build an operating system made entirely of free software.

Linux For Newbies: his book might be really useful, especially if combined with Installing Linux. There's a lot of info on the net about Linux, but it's hard to find a complete, well written, easy to understand guide for people who are new to the whole Linux (free software, open source, etc.) phenomenon and are curious about (trying) it. Having a guide like this, containing info newbies want to hear, would make it less likely that they would get scared away by the enormous pile of complicated stuff they find elsewhere. I might have some time to write a startup, but I imagine there are a lot of people around here who could contribute to this. Stuff that should be in it (just some brainstorming).(research before trying it) Date Added: 7/17/2006 | Visits: 33041 |
The Linux Kernel Module Programming Guide: What exactly is a kernel module? Modules are pieces of code that can be loaded and unloaded into the kernel upon demand. They extend the functionality of the kernel without the need to reboot the system. For example, one type of module is the device driver, which allows the kernel to access hardware connected to the system. Without modules, we would have to build monolithic kernels and add new functionality directly into the kernel image. Besides having larger kernels, this has the disadvantage of requiring us to rebuild and reboot the kernel every time we want new functionality. Date Added: 7/17/2006 | Visits: 34369 |
The Linux USB sub-system: This document is an early draft of a guide to using the USB sub-system under Linux. Date Added: 7/17/2006 | Visits: 32633 |
inux From Scratch: This book is an open source attempt at discussing how to create a Linux computer system by starting with a blank hard disk and assembling all the 'parts' needed for a Linux distribution such as Debian, Fedora core, or Slackware. If you do not know what Linux is, STOP. This book will make you more confused. This is not intended to be a newbie guide nor an installation manual. It is more of a map on discussing all the aspects of a real world attempt to create a Linux-controlled computer, specifically an x86 computer, as this is what the original kernel was written for. There are thousands of tutorials on how to create Linux, even a website dedicated to this very topic Date Added: 7/17/2006 | Visits: 33837 |
The Linux Kernel: This book is for Linux enthusiasts who want to know how the Linux kernel works. It is not an internals manual. Rather it describes the principles and mechanisms that Linux uses; how and why the Linux kernel works the way that it does. Linux is a moving target; this book is based upon the current stable 2.0.33 sources as those are what most individuals and companies are now using Date Added: 7/17/2006 | Visits: 33695 |
Linux Network Administrator's Guide, Second Edition: The Internet is now a household term in many countries. With otherwise serious people beginning to joyride along the Information Superhighway, computer networking seems to be moving toward the status of TV sets and microwave ovens. The Internet has unusually high media coverage, and social science majors are descending on Usenet newsgroups, online virtual reality environments, and the Web to conduct research on the new �Internet Culture.� Date Added: 7/17/2006 | Visits: 32204 |
The Linux System Administrator's Guide: The Linux System Administrator's Guide, describes the system administration aspects of using Linux. It is intended for people who know next to nothing about system administration (those saying ``what is it?''), but who have already mastered at least the basics of normal usage. This manual doesn't tell you how to install Linux; that is described in the Installation and Getting Started document. See below for more information about Linux manuals.

Introduction to the vi Editor: vi (pronounced vee-EYE, short for 'visual') provides basic text editing capabilities. Three aspects of vi make it appealing. First, vi is supplied with all UNIX systems. You can use vi at other universities or any businesses with UNIX systems. Second, vi uses a small amount of memory, which allows efficient operation when the network is busy. Third, because vi uses standard alphanumeric keys for commands, you can use it on virtually any terminal or workstation in existence without having to worry about unusual keyboard mappings. As a point of interest, vi is actually a special mode of another UNIX text editor called ex. Normally you do not need to use ex except in vi mode. Date Added: 7/17/2006 | Visits: 31651 |
