One of the disadvantages of linux is that there is no way to easily learn from others if you are not deep into a Linux community.
I am a noob at Linux with lots of computer experience(25+) in networking, hardware and software. It is all in MS/DOS, Windows, and early incarnations of MAC / ATARI / Commodore and assembly code for various early processors.
Here is my delemma.
I am wanting to learn Linux amd move away from windows.
I have tried Fedora / Debian / Ubunto / Knoppix and played with a few Linux appliances like IP Cop.
I have no community to help me with my stupid questions, and I don't want to take the time needed to read every manual.
That means I am behind the 8 ball right from the start.
So many manuals, so little time.
