Well, here it is: ``Linux Installation and Getting Started''. 
This book is a complete guide to installing and using Linux, even
for the UNIX novice. 

See the file TODO for a list of things to do. If you feel like writing
ANY of the missing sections, feel free! Just let me know before you begin,
in case someone else is working on the same thing.

The format is simple: every chapter has a subdirectory (except for 
the appendices, they all live together under appendix/). Release-specific
information is isolated from the rest of the doc, for easier handling.

To format the book:
	1) Run "latex gs" in this directory, at least 3 times. This is
	   to ensure that the table-of-contents will be accurate.

	2) Run "makeindex gs" to produce the index file gs.ind from
	   gs.idx.

	3) Run "latex gs" a couple of times; this will include the new
	   index. 

	4) You now have "gs.dvi", which is the device-independent output
	   of the book. You may view it with xdvi, convert to PostScript
	   with dvips, whatever. 

	5) Look over the book and be sure that the table of contents
	   and index page numbers correspond to the contents of the book.

When LaTeXing the source, there are a number of Underfull \hbox warnings.
You can ignore them---it's just because I have \sloppy turned on because
of very.long.host.names:followed-by/very/long/filenames. 

Please send me any corrections, updates, additions, flames, money, etc.
For changes: I really prefer to get general overview comments, broad
suggestions. This allows me to rewrite the rough parts myself. If
I just apply cdiffs from you and I don't like the way something is
changed, it means more by-hand fixing. Some of these sections still
need some work, so if you'd just nudge me in the right direction I'll
be grateful. Thanks.
