Rezension zu „Running Linux “
"Eine sehr gut gelungene Einführung in die vielfältige Welt der Linux-Distributionen. [...] Als Einstiegsbuch und zum regelmäßigen Nachschlagen ist der Titel absolut geeignet. Wer das Buch wirklich komplett durcharbeitet, eignet sich fundiertes Grundwissen über das Linux-System an." -- Pocket-PC Benutzergruppe Ortenau, Februar 2007 "1995 hat O'Reilly die erste Ausgabe von Running Linux veröffentlicht. Im Dezember vorigen Jahres konnten Matthias Kalle Dalheimer und Matt Welsh die fünfte Auflage in den Händen halten. Die distributionsunabhängige Einführung eignet sich gleichermaßen für [...] Einsteiger wie Systemverwalter, die Kleinigkeiten nachschlagen wollen." -- Henning Behme, iX 5/2006
