Sample Chapter Released

Posted by raphaelhertzog on Nov. 15, 2011, 12:55 a.m.

Hello everybody,

To give you a small preview of the book's content, we released the translation of chapter 6 which introduces the APT family of tools (apt-get, aptitude, etc.).

Click here to download the chapter.

Check it out and share it widely. The more people who discover and appreciate this extract, the more people who are likely to contribute to the liberation of the book. We're only at 40% of the liberation fund, and we have less than 2 weeks until the finish line! Your help is now more important than ever.

Thank you in advance!
