what book do you guys think is the holy grail
for linux 10.2 and above

this is what im looking for in a single book

A book from mid to pro level
1, solid reference
2, command line, scripts programming
3, text in a nut shell examples
4, text not to be long winded
5, more than three hundred pages
6, comes with a CD (or am i pushing it a bit)
7, a book i can grow into with time & experience
8, not a book with the best bits on the last chapter
9, text to be clear and concise
10, a book that cost much less than 80 bucks

i would say im a faster learner but not a book worm.
im more of a hands on "wreck it and learn" by results
then do it all again until successful type of guy.
once i mastered the "wreck it and learn" method then i
normally turn to a book to provide me with a fuller understanding
of the functions that im trying to do.

there are tons of pdf's online but reading from the screen
for more than 20 minutes is not fun and i loose interest
especially reading manuals.

thanks

The best Linux book I've found so far is The Linux Administration Handbook. This is a really well written, comprehensive guide for running a Linux system, and is generally distro-agnostic, but includes special mention of SUSE, RedHat/Fedora, Debian and Ubuntu.

I haven't been too excited about any of the SUSE-specific books I've read. Usually too general for anyone with much experience.
