This second edition has been completely revised, expanded, and improved, to allow users to take full advantage of all the latest Linux applications. The CD-ROM contains kernel versions up to 1.3.X and is fully configured for easy installation. The accompanying manual explains how to administer and operate Linux as well as its implementation in running an Internet site - complete with reference material on installing Web browsers such as Netscape. It also addresses how to install Linux on a hard drive without reformatting the whole disk. Further features include even easier Internet access via SLIP/PPP, the use of the new ELF format (System V Executable and Linking format), provision of a complete C/C++ development environment and a CD-ROM smart cache that speeds up access to files.
