My vote goes to Running Linux as a first book and readable. Linux Bible
or Linux Secrets as comprehensive reference text. These books and
regular reading of the Linux news groups will solve most problems. I
recommend you keep a good notebook for things to do to the system as
well as copies of key postings.
