Dear experts
Could you give me a little help answering the add below ??? (It can interest others newbies)
Linux home-user (not IT professional but above "dummy in computer" level), myself, that recently installed Mandrake 8.2 (2 cd’s pack), with no time for formal course, with some initial difficulty, looks for:
an excellent book (just one) of Linux with home-user approach, in style: step-by-step / self-study,based on Redhat or Mandrake preferably (if it is important), updated version, covering the basic topics from: linux installation, soft installation/upgrade; use of utilities (backup, anti-virus, firewall), hard/drivers upgrade....until setting home network (at most), for learn and reference use.
Thanks a lot in an advance
