Hi, I am just now getting caught up with my email so have not been around. To answer the question about finding a book or something, if you are a member of bookshare they have all the orielly books on linux. I had heard that you did not need to be a member to get them but I don't know how as I have been a member for years. They have all the linux primmers, such as linux in a nutshell and a slew of others. I would start there and try not to get discouraged as this is one of the most controllable and accesable operating systems that I have ever dealt with.
