Greetings:
I need to get Linux 101 certified, and I'm looking for help. As a study guide, I've got O'reilly's LPI certification in a nutshell. (As I understand it, the book is out of date, but most of the correct information is scattered in there, out of order.) I've been trying to teach it to myself, but I am really in over my head here.
I have no idea what any of this is talking about. I've searched around for some beginner's manuals on preparing for this test, but none of them seem intelligible. They all leap right into very technical jargon, and lose me by only a few pages, or even sentences, in.
I am way out of my element here. I am moderately familiar using the Windows operating system, but not on a programming level: just on a user level. I have ordered Linux for Dummies from my local library, and am waiting for it to arrive. Even if it is simple enough for me to understand, I'll still need test preparation. I intend to visit the exams sections of this website for some of that.
Do you know of any very simple preparation materials which are intended for the inexperienced layman? To use the analogy of Mathematics, I'm looking for instruction on basic addition. Not multiplication tables, not algebra, not calculus. |
