Study Material for Linux+
 
Is there any training or study guide material based directly for the Linux+ certification? I really would like to start studying for this exam however I don't feel like getting a random book on Linux. I would like something that will be more specific to the Linux+ certifications and things commonly found on the certification.

Thanks for any help.

There are some books available for Linux+ so check on amazon.com. You will also need to get familiar with how rpm and debian based distros work (package management, system config and startup scripts etc) because most literature I have seen concentrates on Redhat/Fedora as well as Debian.

There seems to be a lot of books and some range from everything to anything. Do you recommend one over the other from Amazon.com or anywhere else?

I was wondering about possibly something simular to like the "TestKing" study guides for Linux +. Do you know if anyone has anything like that?

When I was studying for Linux+, Sybex was advertising their book on CompTIA's site. So that's what I bought. Though I can't really recommend the book for various reasons, the tests on the enclosed CD are fantastic. Had used the ExamCram series before, and their sample tests all require Windows. I really couldn't see myself booting Windows up to study for my Linux test. ;) Sybex's tests are all web-HTML based so they work on any OS. There's a quiz for each chapter and two full sample tests on their CD.
