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 am currently using Crunchbang as my operating system. I would like to switch to Ubuntu. I don't want to keep Crunchbang at all, and have already backed up all my files. What is the best way to go about switching?
Just install it to the same partition or partitions you are currently using for Crunchbang. I'm not sure what you mean by "best way"? You download the Ubuntu iso, run the md5checksum to verify the download, burn it to a CD or DVD or put it on a flash drive and boot with it. You might check the Ubuntu Hardware Compatibility list to see if your hardware will work. There shouldn't really be any difference in the time it takes to install. You might define what you mean by "best".
