 === Just a quick note and a caution if you
 intend to order it blind online: If you're
 looking for advanced stuff, I'd check the
 contents page of the book first. It may be
 introductory level - I'm just guessing but 348
 pages sounds skimpy for advanced stuff.
 
 === I think Amazon.com sometimes has contents
 pages of books available online, or google for
 the publisher's site. And, although it'll be a
 bit before I can get over to that library, I'll
 check it when I do and let you know.
 
 === There's likely to be other books on Knoppix
 as well. Again, Amazon.com is good for that.
 
 === Will get back to you about other stuff.
