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.

Hey all, Just got linux mandrake 9.2 installed on my system, and it was working fine just yesterday. I remember opening the konsole program and typing in the code to become root user ( I think) su, then login and password and such. Then I shut off my computer. Now when I try to dual boot into linux, a black screen comes up asking for localhost user and password, and I enter it and nothing really happensm it wont take me into the interactive startup! Please help, Im getting kinda stressed over it, and I dont know if I am screwed
Thanks you soooo much, that startx cmd worked.
I am so used to Windows, using their file explorer and all, how do I get to the file to change the level to 4? Thanks.
