The Linux Documentation Project Web site may be a good place to start,
http://sunsite.unc.edu/mdw is a good place to start. Read some HOWTOS.

The O'Riley books are excellent sources of information from anybody from a
newbie to an expert. Also, generic UNIX books generally work very
similarly, although if you can get your paws on it, I'd perfer a book
tailored to Linux or even better your Distribution.

 Some people have told me they don't think a fat penguin really embodies
 the grace of Linux, which just tells me they have never seen a angry
 penguin charging at them in excess of 100mph. They'd be a lot more
 careful about what they say if they had.
