Best UNIX Book I've Seen!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
This book has repeatedly saved me when I needed information that the man pages are too arcane to provide. I used the book for practical suggestions on how to use the grep utility to search for multiple terms. And, it was the only UNIX book I could find that gave practical and meaningful suggestions about how to configure the modem via the command line. Get this book, it will save you a lot of time!
Practical, step-by-step guide
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book is one of the rare guides which is organize not by what the author knows but what are the typical problems you (the reader) have to solve. I would call it "How to.." book. Almost every time when I need to mount the disk, add the device I found exact instructions how to do it and it worked. I am not very experienced Linux user (< 2 years) and I found this book just right for me.
