Linux HOWTOs:
The Linux HOWTOs are detailed "how to" documents on specific subjects. The HOWTO index lists all HOWTOs along with short descriptions. The HOWTOs are written in SGML or XML, and translated to different output formats using SGML-Tools (Linuxdoc DTD) or the DocBook/DSSSL tools. Join the
LDP announcements mailing list for news on HOWTO updates.
» Notes:
-
In the list below, single page means that each HOWTO is available for viewing, in its entirety, on one HTML page. The default for viewing online is for the HOWTO to be split into multiple page(s; usually one HTML page per section).
-
The stated tar package sizes are approximations.
-
PostScript and PDF copies were created using the PA4 paper format (210 x 279 mm, 8-1/4 x 11 in - the width of ISO A4 and the height of U.S. Letter).
-
We have heard of instances whereby the Adobe plug-in for Netscape or IE may have trouble reading the PDF variants. If so, save the file(s) to your hard disk and open them from the desktop - see if that resolves the problem.
-
In some cases, when downloading compressed files with/through a web-browser, the browser will actually perform the decompression (gunzip) automatically, BUT the saved filename will still have the .gz file extension. If you run into problems when trying to
gunzip the file, this is probably the case. Move the file to "filename minus the .gz extension" and the problem should be resolved.
» additional HOWTO-related items:
-
We now offer all HOWTOs and FAQs in the Plucker DB format, viewable on your Palm device. Plucker generators and viewers are free software/open source software, released under the GPL. You can get the Plucker software, including source code, at: http://www.plkr.org/.
These documents can be accessed from the pluckerdb directory.
-
MemoWare PDA Document Repository contains some HOWTOs and
mini-HOWTOs in AportisDoc format (for PalmPilot users).
-
A collection of lists of the HOWTOs sorted by last update/modify date, filename, etc.
