Questions ;-) On the LPI website is a pdf that outlines the required knowledge. Besides the 3 diff package mngrs (apt-get rpm install from source) there is nothing distro specific. IBM has a 'course' on their developer network written by Daniel Robbins ( the Gentoo guy ) . http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/edu/l-dw-linux-lpir21-i.html?S_TACT=104AHW03&S_CMP=EDU > * What kind of time frame are we looking at? Good Q, maybe Mark can answer this one. I have organised 1 SIG like this before you need +/- 10 to 12 sessions of 4 hours. + personal study !!! for LPI 101 and the same for LPI 102. The idea of the SIG is to split work. Everybody picks a couple topics that he/she studies UPFRONT and IN DEPTH. Then during the meeting he/she 'teaches' tho others and should be able to answer ALL the questions. The last meeting can be a mock exam. > * Are there sample questions/brain dumps/etc available anywhere?
