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.

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.

Lenwolf Thank you. This is really going to help get use to the commands.
Also to Hen.
Thank you again also. I will check out the books and hopfuly they will have the info I am after.
Right now I am checking out Linux installation and administration second edition. This is helping a little but has got much on IceWM and all that.
So once again thank you all for your time as it was very helpful.
