Great Content from a Bestselling Author: The Linux Bible 2008 Edition is the
best first Linux book for new or migrating users. By focusing on the building-block
nature of Linux, and offering true up-to-date descriptions of Linux technology,
the Bible helps the reader learn how to jump headlong into Linux, regardless of
the Linux distribution they choose. Descriptions of different Linux distributions
helps users choose the Linux distribution that's right for them. Detailed installation
instructions, step-by-step descriptions of key desktop and server components,
and the actual distributions on CD and DVD, let readers get started using Linux
immediately. The Bible will serve a broad range of readers, from those starting
with Linux to anyone looking to evaluate different Linux distributions. It also
covers broad usage including Linux desktops, servers, and firewall/routers.
• New features: Instead of just telling you about how the technology works,
new "Bringing Linux In" sections describe how people have implemented
Linux in the real world. New sections describe real-life examples, such as how:
• A Small office created an inexpensive Web, print, and file server
• A do-it-yourselfer combined Linux audio and video features to create a home
multimedia center
• A school build a computer lab with free educational software
• A large corporation deployed thousands of Linux systems
• Unique CD and DVD: No other book on the market includes so many Linux distributions
on CD and DVD. Our DVD and CD will include the latest versions of at least the
following Linux distributions: Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian, SUSE, KNOPPIX, Gentoo,
Slackware, Mandriva, Damn Small Linux, SLAX, BackTrack, GeeXbox, and others.
