It mainly sports a number +of smaller spelling fixes, and a rewritten chapter on disks. The +disk chapter is "finished", i.e., it is pitifully inadequate, but at +least it should serve as some sort of introduction to using them under +Linux. I haven't much touched any other stuff, yet. + +This version also has the "Design and Implementation of the Second +Extended Filesystem" paper by Remy Card, Theodore Ts'o, and +Stephen Tweedie, first published in the Proceedings to the First +Dutch International Symposium on Linux, ISBN 90 367 0385 9. Very +well written, it describes inner details ext2fs in a clear and +easily understandable way. (Such understanding can be very valuable +when having problems.) + +An "LDP Rhyme", by an anonymous author, is also included. + +A postscript file (about 600 kilobytes uncompressed) is provided. +I know of no tools to create a good plain text version from LaTeX +source, so I'm again missing one. The deTeX command (e.g., ftp.funet.fi, +utils/TeX) can be used to get somewhat readable output, but it would +require way too much hand editing for me to do it. The text is +exactly 100 pages (using my formatting options), if you are thinking +about printing it out. + +Begin3 +Title: Linux System Administrators' Guide +Version: 0.2 +Entered-date: 04FEB95 +Description: An ALPHA version ("trust this and die") of the Linux + Systems Administrators' Guide, one of the Linux + Documentation Project books. +Keywords: LDP, documentation, System Administrators' Guide +Author: wirzeniu@cs.helsinki.fi (Lars Wirzenius) +Maintained-by: wirzeniu@cs.helsinki.fi (Lars Wirzenius) +Primary-site: sunsite.unc.edu /pub/Linux/docs/LDP/ + sag-0.2.tar.gz + sag-0.2.ps.gz +Platforms: Requires LaTeX2e for typesetting; a postscript file is + included. +Copying-policy: LDP +End + +-- +Lars.Wirzenius@helsinki.fi (finger wirzeniu@klaava.helsinki.fi) +Publib version 0.4: ftp://ftp.cs.helsinki.fi/pub/Software/Local/Publib/ + +-- +Send submissions for comp.os.linux.announce to: linux-announce@news.ornl.gov +PLEASE remember Keywords: and a short description of the software. |
