I'm wanting to install linux on the computer i just built, but i do not know anything about linux, so i figured i should get a book. Is there a certain book you would recomend, and it would also be nice if it came with fedora.

It would be sort of hard for me to download it because my connection is about 26.4 kbps, so i sort of need it on a disc. thancks for the tutorial though.

Go to your local book store in the computer section you might find a book with fedora. They range in price from $20-$50. Or you can try Amazon.com it might be cheaper
