Best Way To Learn Linux?

<< < (2/3) > >>

TheQuirk:
"Enders Game" is a pretty neat book.

Faust:
I found Knoppix to be quite good as a trial run.  Boots and runs off CD so you can see what it's all about - the hard drive install is bad though, so for that Mandrake.  ;)

Pantso:
There are thousands of quality books out there for Linux. I do however wholeheartidly recommend O'Reily's books.

The best way to learn Linux though is to install it on an old machine of yours and start fiddling with it. You can also set up a dual boot system very easily.   ;)

Doctor V:
Yeah, installing it and messing around seeing what you can do with it is probably the best, and most fun way to learn Linux.  A book wouldn't hurt, but any distro comes with documentation, and there are help sites all across the web.  Thats all free.  Make sure to get an easy Distro.
