This book is for someone who wants to quickly master the basics of how to install, run, and maintain Linux on an Intel-based personal computer. All of the tools you need are included. Your computer should have a monitor, or display, keyboard, mouse, hard drive, floppy drive, and CD-ROM drive. Although you can jump right in and install Linux onto your hard drive, you should have some technical information about your computer and its hardware on hand before you start.
