hello bojan,

one note: please do not write html mail to this mailinglist (or better: write 
never html-mails to ALL mailinglists).

there are many books and howtos around the web. a very good book with all 
commands is: o´reillys "linux in a nutshell". but you must know, that no book 
can help more then simply doing it.

i have worked with suse linux long time but nothing in this distribution 
worked like i want it - so i changed to gentoo linux. it's not so easy like 
the configuation of suse but when you know what you're doing, it's the 
easiest distribution ever seen.

!!! it is the first distribution where i can compile everything - without 
errors !!!

right: you must read much more... but isn't it fun to learn more about linux?
i think thats the way of linux... ;-)

hanez... ;-)
