What would be a good book to get a grip on the basics? Should I use my file manager to print out the complete file tree. I,ve gotten to the point where FreeBSD ask,s me to login with password and then say,s hello with it,s clever phrase of the day.....is there a way to get an overview a way to look at it as a whole beore I decide how much detail to torture myself with per day.I,m new to computers but want to learn this system to understand what makes them tick..Pointers Please. Thank You Art.
