8.2. If You Are New to Unix

  If you are new to Unix, you probably should go out and buy some books and do 
some reading. A lot of valuable information can also be found in the Debian 
Reference. This list of Unix FAQs contains a number of UseNet documents which 
provide a nice historical reference.

  Linux is an implementation of Unix. The Linux Documentation Project (LDP) 
collects a number of HOWTOs and online books relating to Linux. Most of these 
documents can be installed locally; just install the doc-linux-html package 
(HTML versions) or the doc-linux-text package (ASCII versions), then look in 
/usr/share/doc/HOWTO. International versions of the LDP HOWTOs are also 
available as Debian packages.


The completely outdated doc-linux documents were not in any stable
release after squeeze, and Unix FAQs from the last millenium are
also not a good introduction.

This section should be merged with a reviewed version of
"8.4. Further Reading and Information".
