"Linux aux petits oignons" - Book about Linux based on CentOS 5.3 (french)
by Niki Kovacs 14 Jun '09

14 Jun '09

Hi, The last six months, I've been busy writing "Linux aux petits oignons", a general introduction to GNU/Linux. The book is aimed at the beginner (or intermediate) reader, though : 1) it's *not* based on Ubuntu, but on CentOS 5.3 2) it doesn't shy away from explaining basic UNIX concepts 3) it favours the use of simple command-line tools Here's the editor's page : http://www.editions-eyrolles.com/Livre/9782212124248/linux-aux-petits-oigno… And here's the book on Amazon : http://www.amazon.fr/Linux-Petits-Oignons-Après-Windows/dp/2212124244 It's 550 pages thick, but you can (almost) read it like a novel. Enjoy ! Niki PS : for those who wonder, "Kiki Novak" is my pen name.

kickstart question
by Jerry Geis 13 Jun '09

13 Jun '09

Hi all, I have a kickstart file that works for /dev/sda. I now need to detect an HP server and use /dev/cciss instead of hard coded /dev/sda. How can I detect what the name of the device is and use /dev/cciss and not /dev/sda? Jerry
