Check this thread for Linux books.
It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

Isn't there a text book specified for this course? Usually, the professor will also provide a "recommended reading" list with additional resources to the class, at least in my experience.
Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
