Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

I have a live disk SLAX I love it! It would be even cooler if I could install it. The make_disk.sh opens Konsole terminal program and has a bunch of fancy red purple and various other collered text codes. Down at the bottom it says installation successful so I assume it's installed and reboot. NO WAY that would be too easy there is nothing written to the HD atall It lied to me. WHAT CAN I DO TO INSTALL SLAX? I like it better than any distro I've checked out thus far! It's the one I want to use as a PRIMARY OS! PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!
i agree, of all the live CDs and slackware children = Slax is the best, i wish the Slax developers would include a harddrive installer to run in either an xterm/konsole or CLI bash shell...
and include some development tools like GCC, G++ & make, xmkmf & imake too...
That is a little french to me but I think you are telling me that SLAX cannot possibly be installed? I love it though I WANT IT AS MY OS! Is there any way? Any way at all?
there is no way to install to a harddrive as far as i know, even the developers of Slax been asked before to make a harddrive installer and he graciously said no, too bad, that is sad ;(
i am sure somebody found a dirty way to install it to a harddrive but i have not found it...
