Today, thanks to the advancements in development, Linux has grown in popularity both at home and at work.

And that explains the premise of this book -- a hands-on guide to get things done on a Linux system.
"I tried others but none showed me how to use Linux for daily use. That is where this book excels. It's packed with information that you can actually USE!"

You should probably have some experience with Linux or FreeBSD and hard drive partitioning (fdisk) before you read this document. The tips herein are tested using FreeBSD 2.2.2, but they should be valid for newer versions as well. Do not hesitate to mail me if you have comments, questions or suggestions about this document.

Arch Linux for DIY Users
There's no dearth of Linux distributions for desktop users or even for running high availability servers. But if you are a do-it-yourself computer user, your choice of Linux distros is fairly limited. You can build Linux from scratch with Linux from Scratch or compile your own set of packages with Gentoo. But if you want a distro that teaches you the basics of Linux as you set it up; is well documented, lightweight, and zippy; and has a dependency-resolving packaging system, you need Arch Linux.
