|  Linux is all about the shell. Once you learn the basic commands, you are up and running along. |

| If you are brand new, try Ubuntu Linux; it's meant for newer users, but also has power behind it. Once you get better at Linux, take a stab at compiling Gentoo; this is the distribution I use, and I love it. Ubuntu installs clean like a windows installer, you don't really need much linux knowledge as far as I know. Edit: Oops, didn't read the question right. Try http://www.linuxlots.com/~jam/guide4.html for a general guide, and http://www.justlinux.com/nhf/Command_Reference for a command reference. |
