Tafe Student in need of help!?!

Hi all.

  2. IceWM… List of full commands. { I know there maybe a lot but as many as I can would be great } This will allow me to do all from are CMD promt.

  3. Some idea’s of some great books which will help me use this OS on more regular base would also be great.

Thank you in adv for your time

I’m going to assume that this is at least in part a homework assignment,
and as such, will keep my answers vague (ie, I won’t do your homework for
you, but I’ll point you in the right direction).

Check out autoyast and kiwi.

Have a look at tab completion.

In general, books on bash scripting and shell work will carry you a long
ways regardless of which Linux distribution you use. The O’Reilly books
are pretty good (the “In a nutshell” series in particular).

I find that books that focus more on the *nix environment are going to be
more helpful than a book on, say, openSUSE 11.4 - since the release cycle
is relatively short, books on a particular release may lure you into
thinking they’re only valid for that release (they’re not, generally) -
but a more over-arching book that covers *nix in general will provide you
good information without making you feel that it’s only valid for a
certain release.
