    Reading material

    Hi, I'm sorta a Linux newbie, but not really. I've been using Linux for quite some time now, and want to learn more.
    Can anybody suggest a good Linux (or Unix) book to read? I want it to be as comprehensive as possible, but also an easy read. Something that will cover EVERYthing, and take me from being a Linux amateur to a pro.
    Since I'm a college student, I have access to a very large CS library, with tons of books. The thing is, I don't know which one I should read!
    Suggestions please!
    Thank you.

    Check this thread for some good ebooks:

    The Linux Cookbook is a good one, by Carla Shroder:

    ...as is Running Linux:

    If you know anything about it, is "How Linux Works" from O'Reilly's site, published by No Starch Press as good as it looks?
