Building my foundation.

Greetings All,
It's been a long week for me how about you all? Friday was my first "LPI" study group with host Chad of the "Linux Basement". The meeting covered Chapt. 4 of O'Reilly's "LPI Linux Certification in a Nutshell, 2nd Edition" (I'll include the links @ the end of this rant). Also this week I've started heavily building my linux knowledge foundation base by watching video tutorials and following along click by click. The current video set of tutorials I'm working with is "LinuxCBTDebian3". I'm working with Debian for a couple or reasons: 1. Ubuntu is a Debian based linux OS, this was the OS that brought me back to linux. I'm okay on Ubuntu but I really wanted to learn the base of what it was built off of. 2. I like their package manager APT. 3. In my eyes if you have a distro you like you should learn what it was built off of. That's my rant for today hope you all in joy the week to come and here are the links I promised:
