Become a Linux Guru

[Emilio Fernandes]

I agree  with Albert,

If you really want to know how the things work under linux

the best way to become a expert is:

Build your next three distributions from scratch:

http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/

You can base your distro on Debian/Ubuntu (.deb) it's easy.
I started on Red Hat 5. (.rpm) and now i'm on Debian/Ubuntu.
But you will learn new things EVERY day!

Good Luck and Have Fun!
